Mike Curb, California's former lieutenant governor and acting governor, is one of the most prominent figures in the entertainment world and presides over his own independent record label, one of the largest in the nation which has launched the careers of numerous stars. During a distinguished career spanning almost five decades, Curb has earned multi-faceted success as a songwriter, producer and record company owner, covering a wide range of musical styles. As an individual, he has written more than 400 songs, and received countless music industry awards, including the prestigious Overall Producer of the Year Award from Billboard magazine in 1972. As the founder and Chairman of Curb Records, Curb's company has produced more than 300 No. 1 records and been honored by Billboard magazine as 2001 Country Music Label of the Year and Radio & Records magazine as 2005 Overall Gold Label of the Year. Curb also serves as Chairman of the Mike Curb Family Foundation and Chairman of gospel music powerhouse Word Entertainment, which was Billboard magazine's Overall Top Imprint in that genre for 2006. In 2007 Curb was honored as Nashvillian of the Year and he recently received his star on Nashville's Music City Walk of Fame. Curb has also received his star on the historic Hollywood Walk of Fame. In 2011 Tennessee Governor Bill Haslam appointed Curb Chairman of the Board of the Tennessee Film Entertainment and Music Commission.

Starting as a student at Grant High School in California's San Fernando Valley in the late 1950s, Curb began performing with his own bands and formed a vocal group, the Mike Curb Congregation. The group achieved worldwide success with many singles and albums including "Burning Bridges," "Put Your Hand In The Hand," and "Softly Whispering I Love You." The Congregation also was seen on national television every week on the Glen Campbell Variety Show on CBS, and recorded No. 1 hit records including "The Candy Man" with Sammy Davis Jr. and "All For The Love Of Sunshine" with Hank Williams Jr., the singer's first No. 1 single.

Before those highlights, Curb began his rise to commercial success in the music industry while a student at California State University. It was on that San Fernando Valley campus in fall 1962 and spring/summer 1963 that Curb composed and recorded some of his earliest songs in the university's music building studios, and where he formed his first record company, a predecessor to Curb Records. His commercial breakthrough came the next year when Honda selected one of those songs, the Curb-penned "You Meet the Nicest People on a Honda (Go Little Honda)" for its national motorcycle advertising campaign. The success and attention garnered by that song opened the doors for the many successes that were to come.

In the 1960s, Curb's record label became an important part of the West Coast rock 'n' roll music scene, releasing early recordings by such artists as The Arrows (featuring Davie Allan), The Stone Ponies (featuring Linda Ronstadt), The Electric Flag (featuring Mike Bloomfield and Buddy Miles) and was partnered with Jim Guercio in the early recordings of Chicago. In 1969, Curb merged his company with MGM Records and became president of the MGM Co. He boosted MGM's standing with such hits as "Spill the Wine" by Eric Burdon and War, "One Bad Apple" by The Osmonds, "Natural Man" by Lou Rawls, "The Candy Man" by Sammy Davis Jr. and the Mike Curb Congregation, "I'm Leaving It All Up To You" by Donny and Marie Osmond, and Donny Osmond's worldwide signature song "Puppy Love," which Curb also produced. During this time, Curb also signed Kenny Rogers and the First Edition, Hank Williams Jr., Don Gibson, Mel Tillis, Billy Walker, Ray Stevens and Eddy Arnold.

Some of Curb's other early success came in composing and producing songs and soundtracks for movies, including the 1966 hit "Wild Angels" staring Peter Fonda and Nancy Sinatra, the music for the 1967 Billy Jack movie "The Born Losers," and "Burning Bridges," the theme for the 1970 Clint Eastwood movie "Kelly's Heroes." In all, Curb has composed or supervised music for more than 50 motion picture soundtracks in films featuring Frank Sinatra, Jimmy Stewart, George C. Scott, Jack Nicholson, John Cassavetes, Ernest Borgnine, Mickey Rooney, Ryan O'Neal, Bette Davis, Jennifer Lopez, Gwyneth Paltrow, Mike Myers, Cliff Robertson, George Kennedy and others. Recently Curb Records has had success with soundtracks such as "Coyote Ugly", Sylvester Stallone's "Driven", Reese Witherspoon's "Legally Blonde 2", and the recent No. 1 box office hit "Evan Almighty" starring Steve Carell and Morgan Freeman.

As a songwriter, Curb has received BMI Awards in both the pop and country categories. In addition to his film compositions, Curb's own songwriting credits include songs for Roy Orbison, Sammy Davis Jr., The Osmond Brothers, Donny & Marie Osmond, Freddie Jackson, Irene Cara, Bobby Vinton, Andy Williams, Wayne Newton, Anne Murray, Al Martino, Steve Lawrence and Eydie Gorme, Mae West, The Crickets, The Hondells, The Ventures, Steve Holy, Eddy Arnold, T.G. Sheppard and Solomon Burke. Other Curb writing highlights include "It Was A Good Time" (the signature song for Liza Minnelli's Emmy Award winning "Liza With A Z") and Curb also composed the theme song for Dick Clark's "American Bandstand" show and Hank Williams Jr.'s first No. 1 recording "All For The Love Of Sunshine".

Curb's early success also led to a long collaboration with the Walt Disney Co. Years before, Michael D. Eisner, former Disney CEO, and ABC television executive commissioned Curb to compose and produce theme music for three ABC animated TV series. The Mike Curb Congregation recorded "Walt Disney's Greatest Hits," an album for Disney featuring contemporary versions of Disney classics that included the hit rendition of "It's A Small World." Curb supervised the soundtrack for Disney's "Lassie" movie. In recent years, Curb Records also released the multi-platinum soundtrack album for Disney's movie "Coyote Ugly," featuring four LeAnn Rimes songs.

Curb also served as president of Verve Records, the historic jazz label, and scored a coup by signing superstar Tony Bennett. While at Verve, Curb worked with musicians such as Jimmy Smith, Stan Getz, Chet Baker and Wes Montgomery. Curb also created the Verve "Golden Archive" series, preserving classic recordings from Ella Fitzgerald, Billie Holiday, Count Basie, Oscar Peterson, Art Tatum, Charlie Parker, George Benson, Herbie Hancock and Louis Armstrong.

After MGM and Verve were sold in 1974, Curb went on to build Curb Records and the Curb/Warner label, which released numerous top-selling singles from the mid-to-late 1970s. Within a short time, the company had five No. 1 records on the Billboard Chart including the Four Seasons' "December 1963 (Oh What A Night)," The Bellamy Brothers' "Let Your Love Flow," Shaun Cassidy's "Da Doo Ron Ron," Exile's "Kiss You All Over," and Debby Boone's "You Light Up My Life" (the biggest selling record of the decade).

During the 1970s, Curb also began venturing into public service. In 1976, he served as co-chair of the Ronald Reagan California Campaign for President and later was co-chair of President Gerald Ford's California campaign. In November 1978, Curb was elected California's lieutenant governor, the same year that Democrat Jerry Brown was elected governor. During his 1979 to 1983 term, Curb, served as acting governor for about one year, guiding the state during disastrous floods, fires and a threatened prison guard strike. He also served on the University of California Board of Regents and the California State University Board of Trustees. Curb also served as President of the California State Senate and Chairman of the Economic Development Commission.

In 1980, Curb served as the national Co-Chairman of President Reagan's successful presidential campaign and Chairman of the convention program in Detroit. In 1982, Curb was elected chair of the National Conference of Lieutenant Governors. Then in 1983 and 1984, at President Reagan's request, Curb served as Chairman of the National Finance Committee during the president's re-election campaign, responsible for raising more than $100 million. In honor of his mentor, Curb played a major role in the Reagan Centennial by sponsoring the rebuilding of the Victory Room at the Ronald Reagan Museum and Library in California. Curb also became a member of the President's counsel at the George W. Bush library and Museum in Dallas Texas.

After his stint in government, Curb returned to California and, together with then-Curb Records President Richard W. Whitehouse, went on to sign such emerging stars as Lyle Lovett, The Judds, Don and Phil Everly (The Everly Brothers), Sawyer Brown, Chris Hillman's Desert Rose Band, Jeffrey Steele's band Boy Howdy, Ronnie McDowell, Hal Ketchum and The Righteous Brothers. The latter gave Curb Records the platinum-selling album and single "Unchained Melody."

In 1984, Curb formed Burbank-based Curb Entertainment International Corp. to concentrate on film/television production and distribution. A member of the American Film Marketing Association, Curb Entertainment maintains a major presence at all of the major film and television markets. Curb's sister, Carole Curb Nemoy, also continues to be a vital part of the company, serving as president , and, overseeing international music, a responsibility she has held since the inception of the company.

Curb has also been active for most of his adult life in motorsports. Curb has owned or sponsored cars driven by stars such as Dale Earnhardt, Richard Petty, Greg Biffle, Dale Jarrett, Johnny Sauter and others who have competed for more than 40 years in the NASCAR circuit or in other major motorsports events including the Indianapolis 500. Curb has been the owner/entrant of cars that have won over 300 races in 25 different series, including all 8 domestic NASCAR owned series (Sprint Cup, Nationwide, Camping World Trucks, Grand-Am Daytona Prototype, GT, K&N East, K&N West, the Whelen Modifieds and the Whelen All-American Late Model Series 2013 winner of the Daytona Battle at the Beach). One highlight was the Curb-owned racing team scoring a victory at the famed Daytona International Speedway in 1984, which was Richard Petty's historic 200th victory. Dale Earnhardt won his first championship in the Curb sponsored car and recently Curb had his 500th NASCAR start in Nashville TN with eight time winner Johnny Sauter who won the 2013 Daytona NASCAR truck race. Curb also co-owned the winning car in the historic 2011 Centennial Indianapolis 500 with driver Dan Wheldon and was the co-winner of the 2012 50th anniversary Daytona 24 hour Rolex sports car race. The Curb/Agajanian Racing Team has won 10 National Championships including being the only Owner/Entrant to win all 3 USAC National Championships in the same year, and both Curb and Agajanian have been inducted into the West Coast Stock Car Hall of Fame.

Meanwhile, Curb Records' successes have continued. In 1997, Curb Records was Billboard's No. 1 country label in four major categories for albums and singles, and the No. 1 country label, according to Nielsen SoundScan. Among the label's top hits was "How Do I Live" by LeAnn Rimes, which was co-produced by Curb and written by fellow California State alum Diane Warren. The song earned Curb a Billboard award for the longest-running record in the history of the Billboard pop chart. He also received a Billboard award for co-producing Rimes' "You Light Up My Life," the only album ever to debut No. 1 on Billboard's Pop Chart, Country Chart and Contemporary Christian Chart. "You Light Up My Life" won a Grammy and an Academy Award was co-published by Curb's music publishing company. Curb's music publishing companies have had over 100 ASCAP, BMI and SESAC award-winning songs, including Garth Brooks' recording of "More Than A Memory" written by three Curb writers, that was the only record in Billboard's history to ever debut No. 1 on the Billboard Country Chart.

Curb's roster of exclusive recording artists has included Lee Brice, Wynonna Judd, Tim McGraw, LeAnn Rimes, Lyle Lovett, Jo Dee Messina, Clay Walker, Steve Holy, Tim Dugger, Kimberley Locke, Rodney Atkins, Andy Gibson, Tyler Dean, Ashley Gearing, Larry Gordon, Rachel Holder, Dylan Scott, Morgan Frazier, and American Young.

Curb Records has continued to play a major role in the contemporary Christian genre with artists such as Selah, Michael English, Jamie Slocum, MIKESCHAIR, Nicol Sponberg, No Other Name, Ryan Corn, OBB, Plumb and Natalie Grant, who received four consecutive Gospel Music Association Dove Awards as Female Vocalist of the Year. In addition to the recordings of his own group (the Mike Curb Congregation), Curb has been involved in the contemporary Christian music business since its inception.  Curb signed early contemporary Christian artists such as Larry Norman, 2nd Chapter of Acts, DeGarmo and Key, The Boone Girls and Debby Boone, whose recording of "You Light Up My Life" is considered to be the first contemporary Christian hit single and the biggest record of the 1970s based on Billboard chart activity. Since that time Curb has had success with contemporary Christian artists such as Stryper, Whiteheart, Patty Cabrera, Jonathan Pierce, Fernando Ortega, and MercyMe, whose recording of "I Can Only Imagine" became one of the biggest Christian crossover hits of all time. In 2002 Mike became a partner and Chairman of Word Records, the oldest gospel recording company in America and the label that the Mike Curb Congregation had recorded for early in its career. As Chairman of Word, working closely with CEO Jim Van Hook and COO Rod Riley, the company has had success with Francesca Battistelli, 2010 Gospel Music Association's Female Vocalist of the Year , Group1 Crew, Remedy Drive, Nicole C. Mullen, Building 429, Stellar Kart, Point of Grace, Salvador, Sidewalk Prophets, Pocket Full of Rocks, Chris August, Mark Schultz, For King and Country, and Randy Travis, whose recording of "Three Wooden Crosses", published by Curb Publishing, became a major cross-over hit. The Word/Curb purchase of Susan Riley's label, Fervent Records, played a major role in transforming Word into a competitive Christian rock label, with such artists as, Big Daddy Weave, BarlowGirl and By The Tree.

Although often associated with country and gospel performers, Curb also has an enduring love of rhythm and blues music dating to his childhood living in the South Los Angeles/Compton area. Through the years, Curb also has signed such artists as Sammy Davis Jr., Lou Rawls, Richie Havens, Solomon Burke, the Sylvers, Richard Roundtree ("Shaft"), the Hues Corporation, the Fisk Jubilee Singers, and Gloria Gaynor, whose recording of "Never Can Say Goodbye" was the first No. 1 dance record on the Billboard Dance Chart. In 1973, the Incredible Bongo Band had its first single "Bongo Rock", which was the first record used to create the break to break hip hop sound. Then in 1975, the Incredible Bongo Band's recording of "Apache" became the Bronx national anthem when Kool Herc began using it as an early hip hop recording. Continuing that tradition, Curb Records has had major, recent hits with "Over and Over," a duet between Tim McGraw and the rapper Nelly, and Curb has recently co-produced five number one Billboard recordings for "American Idol" finalist Kimberley Locke.

In addition to his record business, Curb serves as chair of the Mike Curb Family Foundation, which supports music education and works to restore historic music industry locations. The Curb Foundation owns Elvis Presley's former home in Memphis and RCA Studio B, Columbia Studio A, the Quonset Hut, and the Johnny Cash Museum in Nashville. Curb has served on the governing boards of the Recording Industry Association of America, the Dole Food Company, the worldwide board of the USO, the ACM, CMA and CMF (Country Music Hall of Fame) and was honored by the Grammy Museum where the Mike Curb Gallery is located. The Mike Curb Memphis Hall of Fame is located at the Rock 'N' Soul Museum and Curb is part of the North Carolina Music Hall of Fame, and he also has been inducted into the Georgia Music Hall of Fame, and the National Business Hall of Fame.

Curb is the recipient of an honorary Doctor of Law degree from Pepperdine University in Malibu, California, an honorary Doctor of Humanities degree from Rhodes College, an Honorary Doctor of Fine Arts degree from California State University and an honorary Doctor of Humanities degree from Belmont University in Nashville. The Mike Curb College of Entertainment and Music Business is the largest college at Belmont University. The Mike Curb College of Art, Media and Communication is one of the largest colleges at California State University and UCLA is home to the Mike Curb Music and Technology Lab at the Evelyn and Mo Ostin Center. The Curb College of Music Entertainment and Arts is also one of the largest colleges at Daytona State College. Curb also has endowed the Curb Institute for Music at Rhodes College at Memphis, the Curb Learning Lab at Baylor University in Texas, the Junior Achievement Centers in Los Angeles and Nashville, Curb Creative Campus, and the Curb Center for Art, Enterprise, and Public Policy at Vanderbilt University, and serves on the governing board of Nashville's Fisk University, one of the nation's pioneering historically black institutions. Curb was recently honored by Belmont University as Trustee Emeritus and Belmont's Curb Event Center recently hosted the historic Presidential Debate between Senator John McCain and President Barack Obama. In 2011 Curb was appointed chairman of the Tennessee Film Entertainment and Music Commission.

Curb's father Charles was an FBI agent. Curb is married to the former Linda Dunphy, daughter of famed Southern California television news anchor Jerry Dunphy. Curb and his wife have two adult daughters, Megan Carole and Courtney. They have five grandchildren Catie, Brandon, Ethan and Connor Michael Cox and Carter Curb Childress. Curb has been honored as Father of the Year by the National Father's Day Council. In 2006, he received the lifetime achievement award at the annual Los Angeles Music Awards. In 2007 Curb was honored as Nashvillian of the Year and he recently received his star on Nashville's Music City Walk of Fame. Curb has also received his star on the historic Hollywood Walk of Fame.
