Mary Aloe – Proud Mary Entertainment

Author: Sohan

Mary Aloe was born in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania as the youngest of three girls. She moved to Los Angeles to attend the University of Southern California, where she participated with other students on a music magazine titled “Rock”, distributed in 35 countries. Her interest in journalism led her to work as an entertainment reporter for Us Weekly and Entertainment Weekly Radio.

Mary Aloe moved to New York and transitioned into producing talk shows, such as CBS’s Geraldo. She later moved back to the west coast where she produced a newsmagazine show at Paramount television called Hard Copy. She continued to freelance for ABC News 20/20 and went on to produce other newsmagazine, reality tv shows and specials such as The Susan Powter Show (Multimedia Inc), Caught in the Act (NBC/Dick Clark Productions) and Case Closed (USA Network).

Mary Aloe's first executive producer credit was for the Columbia TriStar television movie The Princess and the Marine. She followed up with another TV executive producer credit on Downtown: A Street Tale. This led to producing feature length films such as When a Man Falls in the Forest, Numb, Battle in Seattle, Tortured, and While She Was Out. Aloe also participates with Regent Releasing in managing a $50 million P&A fund.

Regent Releasing is teaming with veteran indie producer Mary Aloe to handle acquisitions in order to diversify its distribution slate through its $50 million P&A fund.

Aloe produced and financed "Battle in Seattle," starring Charlize Theron, Woody Harrelson, Andre Benjamin and Channing Tatum. The drama is premiering at Toronto.

She also produced and financed "While She Was Out," starring Kim Basinger and Lukas Haas; "Tortured," with Laurence Fishburne and James Cromwell; "Numb," with Matthew Perry and Mary Steenburgen; and "When a Man Falls in the Forest," starring Sharon Stone and Timothy Hutton.

Regent Releasing is part of Regent Entertainment, which produces and/or distributes at least 20 feature films annually and maintains a library of more than 3,500 titles, including "Gods and Monsters," "Tom & Viv" and "One False Move."
