Moreover, he oversaw the launches of Starz Play and Encore Play, the nets’ authenticated online services, with a number of key distributors. And when it comes to mentoring, his son’s achievements are at the top of the list. “After 18 years serving as mentor/father, my son Parker James completed his freshman year at The University of Chicago and is thriving,” he says. “I could not be more pleased.”
