8 Sept 1972 Jahr - Lizzie move to New York

Beschreibung:

Elizabeth “Lizzie” Harris started her career working in Hollywood, but in 1972 she fast-tracked by moving to New York and exploring unique opportunities in music. In previous interviews she has said that she spotted “something cinematic” in Opal &Nev, and that, like Bob Hize before her, she approached Howie Kelly at a do-or-die moment with a risky idea to realign and rebuild his roster. Her proposal involved a personal cash investment in the label (part of an inheritance from her late father, a movie studio exec), and after successfully steering Rivington through its post-riot crisis, Harris served as the label’s executive vice president of marketing and promotions for twenty-three years. When Kelly named his son Mark as his successor in 1995, Harris left Rivington Records and launched an independent firm, L. Harris & Associates, which today specializes in celebrity PR and management and counts Nev Charles as a banner client. She declined to be formally interviewed for this book.
