The MIHP & LA CITY GAMES Producers

Billy Frank President & CEO Executive Producer

“2013 Olympian and Silver Medalist at the

Maccabiah Games in Israel” In 2012 he produced and co-created the sustainable lifestyle show “On Begley Street”, starring Ed Begley Jr., this inspired Billy to spur a company wide objective to focus on and deliver more transformational content—or “projects with heart”. This has led to the company’s evolution and the recent acquisition of the “LA Summer Watts Games”, renamed the “L.A. City Games”, this is where Billy’s production expertise and lifelong passion for sports has come full circle.
