Del.icio.usReuben Cannon
Reuben Cannon has worked with some of the biggest names in Hollywood including Whoopi Goldberg, Bruce Willis, Spike Lee and Will Smith, both as a producer and casting agent. He has produced and cast more urban themed film and television projects than anyone in Hollywood history. And if these aren't large enough accomplishments, Daimler/Chrysler honored Cannon with the first Behind the Lens Award for his contributions in television and film at the 2002 NAACP Image Awards.
A seasoned industry buff with an eye for a great project, Cannon has found a way to successfully gain financial support for independent film projects that have resulted in its investors yielding 20 percent plus on their investment. Some of Cannon's credits as a producer include the recently completed feature Love Don't Cost a Thing, starring Nick Cannon and newcomer Christina Milian, the HBO movie Dancing In September, Down in the Delta, The Women of Brewster Place and Get on the Bus directed by Spike Lee.
Cannon received an Honorary Doctorate of Human Letters from Morehouse College.
