Warner Bros. honors its own

MEDIA DISTRICT WEST -- Warner Bros. Studio Facilities will honor

one of its employees each year -- starting this year -- with the

Robert Pincus Exceptional Service Award.

The award was unveiled last month to celebrate Pincus himself, a

30-year veteran who serves as senior vice president of operations.

Future honorees will also be individuals who have demonstrated

exceptional service to Warner Bros. Studios over a significant period

of time.

A permanent bronze plaque listing each recipient’s name will be

mounted at the Gate 2 entrance to the studio.

Awards go to former Burbank employees

BURBANK -- Technology experts who worked for Warner Bros. and the

Burbank studios will be honored by the Academy of Motion Picture Arts

processing. Richard Glickman worked as a technical consultant to the
