Andrew Gaty (Producer)
Andrew Gaty was born in Budapest, Hungary, in September 1943 and in 1956 immigrated to Australia. In
1969, he founded Seven Keys Group Pty. Ltd., which by 1975 became the largest independent motion picture
distribution company in Australia.
On the international front, he was co-executive Producer with Robert Stigwood of the NBC television
production of The Entertainer starring Jack Lemmon, Stunt Seven with Martin Poll for CBS, and was a
consultant in Munich on Lili Marleen, directed by Rainer-Werner Fassbender and in London on the Who's
Tommy, directed by Ken Russell.
As a theatrical impresario, he produced the Australian stage production of The Last of the Red Hot Lovers by
Neil Simon and in Los Angeles The Sun Dialogues by David Hollander (creator of Guardian). For television
he produced the Australian version of All In the Family for the Nine Network. He also produced two motion
pictures in Australia: The Return of Captain Invincible, starring Alan Arkin and Christopher Lee, which he co-
wrote with Steve De Souza (Die Hard), and Stanley starring Peter Bensley and Nell Campbell (The Rocky
Horror Picture Show).
In 1985, Mr. Gaty sold the Seven Keys Group to the Perry Corporation and moved to New York and produced
his first US production, Heart of Midnight starring Jennifer Jason Leigh and Peter Coyote, which is distributed
through MGM. In 1994, he entered into a production agreement with Universal Pictures, developing several
projects. He is currently living in Los Angeles with his wife and two daughters.
