the New Video Interview from O'Henry Studios Here History: "Give me great mics - new and old - audio workstations, great acoustics but, most of all, real, live musicians, and I'll make great recordings: jazz, classical, pop, rock, blues, Latin and world music," says Joseph Magee, who has numerous recording, mixing and producing credits for feature films and records. Additionally, he consults on design projects such as Disney Concert Hall and The Colburn School of Performing Arts, and mixed 90% of the live shows at the world-famous Hollywood Bowl for several years. A member of the National Association of Recording Arts & Sciences (NARAS) since 1988, Magee has taught at USC, is on the faculty of The Colburn School. "I am a product of the days when music programs in the public schools were the rule, not the exception," he says. "And because my music teachers and college professors changed my life, I consider arts education essential for our children and society." A past Grammy nominee, Magee received a 1999 Golden Reel Award for the Emmy-winning "The Temptations."
