- History / Biographical
- Edward Milkis (1931 - 1996) was a film and television producer. Milkis was best known for his work with the original "Star Trek" series (1968 - 1969), and other TV shows such as "The Brady Bunch" (1969 - 1972), "Laverne & Shirley" (1976 - 1983) and "Happy Days" (1974 - 1984). Milkis was also the producer for multiple films, including "Silver Streak" (1976) starring Gene Wilder, Richard Pryor and Jill Clayburgh. Nicholas Morant was involved with "Silver Streak" while he took action shots of the cast and photos of the train segment of the film set, while working for the Canadian Pacific Railway company as their Special Photographer (much of the filming took place aboard a Canadian Pacific train, explaining Morant's involvement). It is likely Milkis and Morant became acquainted while working on the set of "Silver Streak" together.
