Steve Golin was the founder and CEO of "Anonymous Content", a multimedia development, production and talent management company based in Culver City, California. The company reunited Golin with such directors as David Fincher, Neil LaBute, David Kellogg, Gore Verbinski and Mark Romanek, all of whom worked with Golin through his first venture, "Propaganda Films". While developing a slate of film and television projects at "Anonymous", Golin guided the company's commercial division to become one of the top commercial production entities in the industry, producing spots and campaigns for Nike, Intel, Citibank, United Airlines, Ford, Audi, Coca-Cola, Pepsi and others. Its music video division, which earned Best Hard Rock New Artist Clip of The Year at the 2000 Billboard Music Video Awards for A Perfect Circle's "Judith", directed by David Fincher, had also produced projects for the Wallflowers, Third Eye Blind, Smashmouth, Filter and Cypress Hill, among other artists. Under Golin's leadership, the company's management division represented more than 50 writers, directors and actors. Previously, as co-founder of "Propaganda Films", Golin helped develop such filmmakers as Michael Bay, Spike Jonze, Dominic Sena, Simon West and Antoine Fuqua. There, he also oversaw the development and production of such acclaimed television projects as Beverly Hills, 90210 (1990), Twin Peaks (1990) and the Peabody Award-winning Tales of the City (1993). Golin built "Propaganda" into one of the largest music video and commercial production companies in the world, winning more MTV Video Awards and Cannes Palme d'Or Awards than any other company. He helped revolutionize the music video and commercial industries with sophisticated and award-winning work for such artists as Michael Jackson, Madonna, The Rolling Stones, David Bowie, Bonnie Raitt, George Michael and The Red Hot Chili Peppers, and major advertisers including Budweiser, AT&T, IBM, Nike, Apple and McDonald's.
