On behalf of everyone of Oz Magazine we mourn the loss of an exceptional person in the Georgia film community. R.I.P. Ed Spivia.

“We lost a great Georgian today who turned his grand vision of Georgia becoming a movie and television production center into reality. He was there from the very start when the movie Deliverance put Georgia on the map as a top location for movie production. Without the passionate leadership of Ed Spivia our state would have never become an international destination for this industry.”

Memoriam quote by: Wilbur T. Fitzgerald
