A work in constant progress (and occasional regress).
Birthplace:
Salt Lake City, Utah, USA
Ken Eklof was born and raised in Salt Lake City, Utah. He has one sister, Annebel Meredith, who has worked with him on several, if not all of the Liken movies. He served an honorable full time mission for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints to the Stockholm, Sweden Mission, which is where both of his parents were from, so he already knew the language. He has, as Dennis Agle put it, "A mad scientist thing about him. When Ken mentions a gag, you do it." He's been in the LDS pageant in Nauvoo two years in a row now, playing Brigham Young. He's been in numerous shows around the country. Ken is also a family man in a major way. He has 7 children, who are all just as crazy as he is, if not more so.
Most data and links to images for the Movies section come from TheMovieDB (TMDB).
Additional data for Film Titles come from The Open Movie Database (OMDb).
At least one plug-in comes from IMDb.
Data are -- hey, it's a plural -- subject to the limitations of their sources. (For example, TMDB search results currently max out at 20.) I am limiting myself to free data sources for now. (No, a "free trial" is not free.)
While much of the above data are retrieved directly from outside APIs and other such sources, data from American Film Institute (AFI) and British Film Institute (BFI) were manually entered the old fashioned way into a MySQL database. Re BFI I took the following liberties:
Regarding profile removals and data corrections:
Filtering is applied here to film projects flagged as "adult" by TheMovieDB. Pending "popular demand" I am contemplating a login and profile system with preferences (such as whether to allow adult images to appear) and permissions (such as data entry).
Whereas the overall purpose of this website is to serve as a personal demo/portfolio/workshop of web and data skills, this Movies section is not meant to compete with or substitute for far more definitive movie websites.
Whether or not he still clings to an award which he won in 1986 as a film critic for his college's newspaper, Jeffrey Hartmann is not responsible for the texts of overviews and biographies supplied by external data sources.
