Biography

For over twenty years, Los Angeles based Emmy nominated producer & director Sam Gollestani has been at the cutting edge of film and television production. Sam has created & delivered hit projects for FOX, Disney, Sony, and NBC Universal.

For nearly two decades, he has collaborated with Emmy Award winning production house, Mark Burnett Productions for iconic TV shows including "Survivor", "The Contender", and "The World's Toughest Race" starring Bear Grylls which was the #1 summer series for Amazon Prime in 2020. He was also a producer on the film "Killer Movie" starring Kaley Cuoco and Paul Wesley for Amazon and the 2024 Asian TV Award winning "The Challenger: Battleground" for HBO.

After being appointed head of production for FOX Television, Sam relocated to Singapore then Hong Kong to launch and oversee original content for the Asia Pacific region for 5 years. This included a year under the Disney banner, upon their acquisition of FOX. When he's not immersed in creating compelling content, Sam is a professor of film and television at San Jose State University and brings his invaluable experience, knowledge and skill to each project he's a part of.
