Table Rock Productions, Inc.

Julie was a studio page during summer break from college when Norman Lear’s Tandem/TAT asked her to work as a junior publicist on twelve of his top-rated television shows, including “All In the Family,” “Maude,” “The Jeffersons” and “Fernwood Tonight.” From there she moved to ABC Television’s Special Projects, handling press junkets and talent publicity bookings. With that experience, she and husband Jon started Table Rock Productions, Inc., a full service production company delivering short and long form programming to various pay TV networks

The company easily branched into other areas, including electronic press kits for many of the major studios and projects for Disney Theme Park Productions and Imagineering. Museum work followed, for institutions including the J. Paul Getty Center. Julie also produced, with Billy Crystal directing, the highly acclaimed Finding Our Families, Finding Ourselves, a permanent exhibition at the Simon Wiesenthal Center’s Museum of Tolerance.

Currently, commercials and additional media for the national campaigns of The 3DAY Breast Cancer Walk for Susan G. Komen are keeping Julie busy. Other recent projects: promotional materials for both the Skirball Museum’s permanent exhibit  and the Port of Long Beach campaign. After working with a live bull, a tiger and cage-full of rottweilers on spots for the THQ video game, directing Sarah Chalke and Melina Karadakes in Hanes T-Shirts’  campaign was a walk in the park.

Julie enjoys exciting work challenges and all they bring to the table. Most important, she feels, are the relationships she’s developed with many talented people in successful collaborations.

She and Jon have one daughter, Emily Rose, a freshman swimmer and engineering student at the University of Texas at Austin. Hook 'em, Horns!

Jon's been a member of the Writers Guild of America, West since 1984 and enjoys all phases of production, from inception through delivery. He's comfortable behind a camera and at the editing console. Originally from Indiana, he attended both Tulane University and Indiana University then moved to New York City in 1975 for a brief stint of acting, and to Los Angeles a year and a half later.

His "Hollywood Years" began in the mailroom at Universal Studios, taking him into the advertising department before starting JJ Productions with wife Julie. They'd created a movie review show for Showtime Pay Television, leading to producing assignments for numerous pay and cable networks. Jon also wrote for game shows, including "The Love Connection" and "Just Men" with Betty White. He was a screenwriter for several years, with projects for Walt Disney and Tri-Star Pictures, among others, before JJ incorporated in 1989 as Table Rock Productions and became a full-time pursuit.
