Michael Tollin
Emmy-winning, Oscar-nominated producer-director-writer Mike (a.k.a. Michael) Tollin has lent his hand to many sports and youth related projects, working extensively in both television and features. Before teaming up with producer-director Brian Robbins, with whom he would collaborate on several successful shows and movies, Tollin scored several Sports Emmy Awards for his efforts on "The Baseball Bunch" (syndicated, 1980-82). He was later nominated as the producer of the sports anthology "This is the USFL" (1983), and went on to chronicle the now defunct United States Football League with his 1988 feature debut "The Final Season," a sports documentary following the Tampa Bay Bandits in their 1985 final season.
