Michael and Ruby came to New Mexico in 2004 from Los Angeles to assist in the building of our State’s film industry in its infancy. Their efforts paid off in 2006 when they singularly confronted a Round House bill that would have damaged New Mexico’s opportunity to remain at the forefront in film incentives. They succeeded in having the misguided bill quashed, and instead of one film company receiving the 25% benefits, all film companies would receive this benefit. Today, we see the fruits of their efforts.
