And a little-known fact is our own Steve Watson, jazz guitarist in the music department, had his hand in the post-production of these and other crime\/action dramas. He was also a member of the Bruce Hornsby Band, recorded session music for national advertising, and worked on a number of big-screen soundtracks in the day. Having left Hollywood more than two decades ago, Watson is making a name for himself as instructor at Furman and the Fine Arts Center; small business owner (Watson Wood Music); recording artist and lead band member of his own group, Watson's Riddle; and live performer (with the likes of Chuck Leavell, no less). Watson thrives on busy. He says, \"I'm not one to sit around ... I always have something going on.\""}
