Description

Like a lot of people in the film industry, Tony Marra has an interesting story about how he broke into the business. He began his career as a musician, playing guitar for local bands such as The Plugs in his native Detroit. From there, Tony took the opportunity to become a lighting director for live music concerts. The experience he gained lighting for the stage led him to lighting for low-budget feature films shot in the Detroit area. Tony worked both as a gaffer and as a key grip on many local projects within the the small scale film community of Detroit. In 1984, he moved to Los Angeles, choosing to work solely as a key grip. Tony was working on the HBO film, Curiosity Kills, in 1988 when he met Mike Fahey, who was to become his business partner.
