So long, Michael A. Hoey

[Bob Jersey]

He came here from Britain as a kid with dad Dennis, the blubbering Lestrade to Rathbone's Sherlock, and would have a forgettable career in film if it hadn't been for some guy called... Elvis, for whom he wrote two of his typically-wild films, or the cult classic The Navy vs The Night Monsters... he would hang around Hollywood for a while, whether editing (his first craft), writing, or directing into the 2000s, when following his work on an inside-the-White-House special for Travel Channel (!) he was hired by the Television Academy as producer for several rounds of Creative-Arts Emmy ceremonies. At his California home; 79.
