Bo Harwood

Bo's relationship ended only with the death of Cassavetes in 1989. When asked by documentarian Michael Ventura, during the making of Cassavetes' last film Love Streams, what he had learned from working with Cassavetes, Harwood wistfully replied:

Starting in 1986, with Pee-wee's Playhouse, Bo Harwood has done work mixing sound for several television series, including My So-Called Life, Malcolm in the Middle, and a couple of episodes of Entourage.

Harwood began working with Cassavetes doing "a little editing" on Husbands (1970), and "a little sound editing" on Minnie and Moskowitz (1971). Before the production of 1974's A Woman Under the Influence,Cassavetes approached Harwood with the idea that he be the sound mixer as well as composer on the film. Harwood, who at the time had no experience with sound recording was hesitant but Cassavetes prevailed. He is credited as the composer (Music) and as the mixer (Sound) on the film.

In 1966, Bo Harwood was the lead singer and guitarist in a rock band. His first feature film score was for 1969's The Bach Train.
