Michael Pelleg
Michael Pelleg graduated from the University of Miami in 2013 with a degree in Music Business and Entertainment Industries. He is currently working for Disney Television Studios as a Manager - TV Music, where he has been for the last 8 years. During his time with The Walt Disney Company, he’s worked on such shows as Black-ish, The Muppets Mayhem, Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., Criminal Minds, Once Upon a Time, and Daredevil, among many others (134 seasons of TV). Before his time at Disney, he took a rather meandering journey through several different jobs within the music industry, working at a talent agency, artist management company, record label, and concert promoter before landing in the Film/TV music space where he’d always wanted to be. If it weren’t for Lisa Simpson (RIP Bleeding Gums Murphy), he never would have started playing the saxophone as a kid, starting him on his path toward a career in music.
