Roy Lee

Roy Lee (born March 23, 1969) is an American film producer who regularly takes well known Asian films and remakes them for American audiences. Examples include, The Ring and The Grudge. Vertigo Entertainment, Lee's production company in Beverly Hills, California, has a first-look deal with Warner Bros. Pictures.

Early life

Lee was born in 1969 at Wyckoff Heights Hospital, in Brooklyn, New York, USA, to Korean parents. His father, a doctor, and his mother, had been in America for just three years and were still trying to acclimate. Lee’s mother, a devout Christian, nurtured hopes that he would become a minister.

Lee graduated Walter Johnson High School in 1987. During his undergraduate studies at George Washington University, Lee did an internship at the law firm Fried Frank Harris Shriver & Jacobson. After graduating GWU, Lee attended law school at American University Washington College of Law where he prepared for a career in corporate law.

Career

Roy Lee (baseball)

Roy Edwin Lee (September 28, 1917 – November 11, 1985) was an American baseball player and collegiate coach. He was a Major League Baseball pitcher who played for the New York Giants in 1945.

Coaching

Roy Lee was named the head coach of the Saint Louis University baseball program in 1960. In seven years, his Billikens built a record of 125–84–5. His teams won the Missouri Valley Conference (MVC) regular season title in 1966 and the MVC Tournament championship in 1964–66, earning a place in the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) playoffs. Lee's Billikens placed third in the 1965 College World Series.

In 1967, Lee departed the successful Division I program at St. Louis to start the new Division II program at Southern Illinois University Edwardsville (SIUE). With no scholarships and almost no budget, he quickly built a successful program. In his eleven years as the Cougars' head coach, his teams had a record of 237–144–3 and made eight successive appearances in the NCAA playoffs. Lee's Cougars advanced to the Division II College World Series three times and finished as the 1976 runners-up.

Famous quotes by Roy Lee:

"We wanted to bring 'Fiddler,' and bring it to a larger audience."
"The majority (of the cast) are from Livingston. Some of the kids have been working in community theater quite a lot. They are a seasoned cast."
"Without his script, no one would have wanted to do it."

As Long as U Know

by: RL

Uh, as long as you know
I worship the rain that falls on the grass that you walk on
and the sun that shines on it to help it grow
so no matter where you are or whatever it is that you go through
there's one thing that I think you oughta know
(CHORUS)
No matter how far apart
girl you always have my heart
I don't care where you go
as long as you know
I worship the rain that falls on the grass that you walk on,
and the sun that shines on it to help it grow,
so no matter where you are and whatever it is your going through
there's one thing that I think you ought know
(CHORUS)
No matter how far apart,
Girl you'll always have my heart (yoooooou)
I don't care where you go
as long as you know
No matter how far apart
Girl you'll always have my heart
I don't care where you go
as long as you know
long as you, know
