Harry Stephen Ackerman (November 17, 1912 - February 3, 1991) was an American TV producer.

Gidget is a 1959 Columbia Pictures CinemaScope feature film.
 It stars Sandra Dee, Cliff Robertson, and James Darren in a story about a teenager's initiation into the California surf culture and her romance with a young surfer.
 The film was directed by Paul Wendkos.
 The movie featured the first of many screen appearances by the character "Gidget", created by Hollywood writer Frederick Kohner (and based on his own daughter).
 The screenplay was written by Gabrielle Upton, a nom de plume of Gillian Houghton who was then head writer of the soap opera "The Secret Storm".
 This would be Upton's sole contribution to the Gidget canon.
 The story was based on Kohner's 1957 novel "Gidget, the Little Girl with Big Ideas".
The former Columbia Ranch is located at 411 N. Hollywood Way in Burbank, California and is now called the Warner Bros.
 Ranch.
 It was the backdrop for many of the Columbia Pictures movies and Screen Gems/Columbia Pictures Television shows, including "Father Knows Best", "The Donna Reed Show", "Dennis the Menace", "Hazel", "Bewitched", "Gidget", "I Dream of Jeannie", "The Monkees", "The Flying Nun", "Here Come the Brides", "The Partridge Family", "The Hathaways", "Lost Horizon", "High Noon", "Mr. Deeds Goes to Town", "You Were Never Lovelier", "The Wild One", and "Autumn Leaves".
 Only the front facades of the houses and buildings were built; the interiors were always shot at other locations or studios.
 The streets were constructed and arranged in such a way as to allow shooting at multiple angles to create the illusion of a much larger area, though the lot only spans across about six city blocks.
In Love With These Times is a compilation of previously released songs by artists on New Zealand based Flying Nun Records.

 The CD version released by Flying Nun Europe contained an additional six tracks which were omitted from the re-release.

 He went on to perform and record in The Pterodactyls and The Letter 5.
 In 2008, he formed The South Tonight with John Kelcher, late of Flying Nun band Sneaky Feelings, and with other Christchurch musicians.
Jayrem Records is a New Zealand record company which has been operating since the early 1980s.
 Initially concentrating on alternative rock and indie music, the Wellington-based company was, for many years, the main rival to South Island based Flying Nun Records, and produced records which had a similar sound to its southern compatriot, though concentrating less in the Dunedin Sound groups, which were a major part of Flying Nun's repertoire.
 In place of these sounds, Jayrem's repertoire extended into Urban Pasifika and Māori music, as well as folk/roots and reggae.
