Steve Marcus
Television producer/director (B: August 10, 1948 - Present)
I produced, directed and shot the first nationally syndicated television series called Disco 77. The second season the name was changed to Disco Magic. It aired on CBS owned stations as well as over 100 stations in this country. Also aired in 75 countries.
I was interviewed and part of the VH1 special When Disco Ruled The World. The series had over 65 guest stars. A few years back I sold the entire series to Historic Films in New York. We were the first tv show to have Village People perform on. Still Producing commercials and tv shows out of South Florida. Company name is Marcus Productions, Inc.

Steve Marcus put us on the map, us, of course meaning DISCO. I remember DISCO 77 back in Jersey, broadcast on channel 2 on a Saturday or Sunday morning. For its time, it was a fair representation of some of the music being played at DISCO'S. It spotlighted possible crossover songs, and hits. Too bad it didn't play those "heard only in clubs" type songs. Still, you can't get everything, and we were very lucky that Steve put us on TV at all. Thank you Steve.
