- Lou Adler is an American record producer, manager, and director. Born in Chicago, Illinois and raised in East Los Angeles, Adler grew up in a mixed Jewish/Mexican family. In 1964, Adler founded and co-owned Dunhill Records. He was President of the label as well as the chief record producer from 1964 to 1967. That summer he sold Dunhill for three million dollars to ABC Records. Later in 1967, he founded Ode Records. In June 1967, Adler helped to produce the Monterey International Pop Festival, as well as the film version, Monterey Pop. He is the former manager of Jan & Dean, and was the producer of Sam Cooke, The Mamas & the Papas, Johnny Rivers, Barry McGuire, Scott McKenzie, Spirit, Carole King, The Weaver Temptations (which he signed in 1968) and Cheech and Chong. In 1974, he helped to produce the American stage version of The Rocky Horror Show as well as the film version, The Rocky Horror Picture Show. In 1978, Adler directed the movie Up In Smoke, starring Cheech & Chong. The movie remains a cult hit, and in 2000 Adler recorded a commentary track along with Cheech Marin for the DVD release. His 1981 followup film, Ladies and Gentlemen, The Fabulous Stains, was barely released, but enjoyed a long life on cable TV broadcasts. He has won two Grammy Awards in 1972 in the Record of the Year category for producing It's Too Late by Carole King and in the Album of the Year category for Tapestry (also by King). Adler was known as a major playboy in the 1960s and 1970s, having been romantically linked to some of the world's most beautiful women, such as singer Jill Gibson, actress Tina Sinatra, actress Peggy Lipton, singer-actress Michelle Phillips and actress Britt Ekland, by whom he fathered a son Nicholai in 1973. Lou Adler was married to actress and singer Shelley Fabares in 1964 and produced several of her songs. They separated in 1966 but were not formally divorced until 1980. In 1978, Adler fathered a second son, Cisco Adler, with then-girlfriend Phyllis Somer. Today, Adler is married to Page Hannah, the younger sister of actress Daryl Hannah. The couple have sons named Manny, Ike, Pablo, and Oscar. Lou Adler is the owner of The Roxy Theatre in West Hollywood, California. Adler is best friends with actor Jack Nicholson and can often be found at his side at L.A. Lakers Basketball games where he is often misidentified as Donald Sutherland. Adler is a lifelong friend of record producer Herb Alpert, formerly of the Tijuana Brass and partner of record label A & M Records. Peter Fonda partly based his character Terry Valentine in The Limey on Adler, according to Fonda's interview on the DVD. He is also the uncle of former Guns N' Roses drummer Stephen Adler.
- Lou Adler on yhdysvaltalainen äänilevytuottaja. Hän kasvoi Chicagossa juutalais-meksikolaisessa perheessä. Hän perusti Dunhill Records -yhtiön vuonna 1964, mutta myi sen kesällä 1967 ABC Recordsille kolmella miljoonalla dollarilla. Adler perusti vuonna 1967 Ode Recordsin ja oli suunnittelemassa Montereyn ensimmäistä kansainvälistä popmusiikkifestivaalia. Hän on mm. Jan & Deanin entinen manageri sekä Sam Cooken, The Mamas and the Papasin, Johnny Riversin, Barry McGuiren, Scott McKenzien, Spiritin, Carole Kingin, The Weaver Temptationsin ja Cheech and Chongin tuottaja. Adler ohjasi Cheech and Chongin ensimmäisen elokuvan Up in Smoken vuonna 1978. Hänen yksityiselämäänsä seurattiin 1960–1970-lukujen Yhdysvalloissa varsin tiiviisti, ja tiedotusvälineet uutisoivat hänen suhteistaan ainakin Jill Gibsoniin, Tina Sinatraan, Peggy Liptoniin ja Michelle Phillipsiin. Hänelle ja näyttelijä Britt Eklandille syntyi vuonna 1973 poika Nicholai. Adler oli mennyt vuonna 1964 naimisiin Shelley Fabaresin kanssa ja tuotti useita hänen laulujaan. Pariskunta oli kuitenkin asunut erillään jo vuodesta 1966 ja otti virallisenkin avioeron vuonna 1980. Adlerin toinen poika Cisco syntyi vuonna 1978. Hän elää nykyisin avioliitossa Daryl Hannahin nuoremman sisko Page Hannahin kanssa, ja heillä on pojat Manny, Pablo, Oscar ja Ike. Hän omistaa The Roxy Theatren West Hollywoodissa Kaliforniassa.
