Michael Barker

Michael Barker and his copresidents at Sony Pictures Classics, Tom Bernard and Marcie Bloom, have brought out some of the best and most successful independent and international films of the last two decades, from Women on the Verge of a Nervous Breakdown and House of Flying Daggers to Saraband, Capote, and Cache. Michael has also been an invaluable friend and supporter of Criterion, offering advice and suggestions, and occasionally helping us to secure the participation of some of the many filmmakers whose respect and admiration he has earned.
