Birthplace

[edit]

IMDb says:

   http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0006236/
   
   Date of birth (location) 
   29 September 1944 
   Los Angeles, California, USA 
   Mini biography 
   Mike Post was born in San Fernando, California in 1945...

and MBC says:

   http://www.museum.tv/archives/etv/P/htmlP/postmike/postmike.htm
   
   Born in San Fernando, California, U.S.A..."

So, which of them is correct?

San fernando Valley is currently part of tyhe city of Los Angeles... AnonMoos 18:25, 26 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Not all of the San Fernando Valley is part of the City of Los Angeles. Specifically, the City of San Fernando, California is separate. If Post was born there, it should say San Fernando for his birthplace. If he was born in most of the rest of the San Fernando Valley, it should say L.A. Burbank is also part of the San Fernando Valley and a separate city. These are not the only exceptions. Bellczar (talk) 12:52, 4 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Personal Hero

[edit]

I'm not sure what 'personal hero' refers to. Personal hero of whom?

Edits For Weight

[edit]

Post has won five Grammys, which for a musician are at the very least as significant as an Emmy award - yet the article mentioned only the Rockford one. The impression is left that the Emmy for the relatively unknown Murder One (show and theme) and the relatively obscure BMI awards are more significant accomplishments than either a) Post's Grammys, including the remarkable double award in 1981 for both composition and performance of the same song (the Hill Street Theme), and b) the crossover popularity and continuing familiarity of his best-known themes, those from the most honored and/or popular of the shows that they introduced.

The chronology of Post's TV themes is a good idea, but it is one that likely needs dates with the shows to be clarified.

However, following guidelines of WP:NOTE - the Grammys must be included and probably should be in the lede. The Commish and BMI should be footnotes, or at least in a lessprominant position in the article. Sensei48 (talk) 02:59, 17 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Edie Sedgwick

[edit]

Is this Michael Post the husband of Edie Sedgwick? --Tarheelz123 (talk) 20:34, 24 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I don't believe so. On her wikipedia page, her husband is listed as Michael Brett Post. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 96.250.206.188 (talk) 18:15, 22 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Isn't there a better photo?

[edit]

https://mike-post.com/biography/

Surely a better photo can be sourced. The current image looks like it belongs to a National Enquirer article about a UFO sighting. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 174.91.206.63 (talk) 17:06, 7 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
