Shobi Devani
- Additional Crew
Shobi Devani had an interesting path to the Hollywood film industry. Born and raised in Nairobi, Kenya, Shobi always dreamed of being a part of the American movie industry. She moved to Hollywood in 1977 and leveraged her background in accounting to obtain her first role as an accountant at the famous Cannon Films in 1979. Shobi worked there with well known producers Menahem Golan and Yoram Globus for several years, before being acquired by MGM. She then moved to Pierre David's Image Organization and later re-joined Menahem Golan at his then new studio, 21st Century Films. In 1994, Shobi was brought on by industry veterans Avi Lerner, Danny Dimbort, and Trevor Short as the Chief Financial Controller at Nu Image Organization.
