Mickey Cottrell’s Medical Fund
I've known mickey cottrell for many years. he was very helpful in getting the word out when i made my first film- HUSTLER WHITE- way back in 1996. this was even before mickey worked in PR.
Our beloved friend and renowned independent film publicist Mickey Cottrell has suffered a debilitating stroke and needs urgent help from his community of loved ones. He will require 24 hour care for the foreseeable future, and extensive physical therapy for a long time to come. He will not be able to garner any income during this time, and so we beseech you to help him through this difficult time.
Mickey has dedicated the last four decades of his life to helping independent film is more ways than one can list. He has handled PR for some of the boldest and freshest indie cinema such as The Quiet American, Weekend, I Am Divine, Young @ Heart, Born to Fly: Elizabeth Streb Vs Gravity, The Galapagos Affair, , Bagdad Cafe, Drugstore Cowboy, Greendale, Ballet Russes
Over the decades he has helped introduce the world to directing talent such as Percy Adlon, Phillip Noyce, Sophia Takal, Andrew Haigh, Jonathan Caouette, Wim Wenders, Gus Van Sant, Neil Young and countless others.
Actor, publicist, producer, champion, friend, and activist… Mickey is an invaluable member of our community and a unique soul. All of you who know him know that.
Donations will be used to cover immediate and future medical care. All contributions are deeply appreciated and a speedy response would be very helpful: knowing how much money is available will help us plan and prioritize his care.
Mickey is strong and has battled adversity all his life. If we come together now, we are confident we can make this happen. Mickey has been there to champion indie films and their creators and now it's our turn to return the favor. Please help, share, tell your friends, and thank you!
