Harmony Gold USA
Harmony Gold is a television production and distribution company established in 1983. It is best known as the “creator” and main distributor of the anime series Robotech. It also partially dubbed the Dragon Ball series in the late 1980s.
Harmony Gold also partly funded the controversial 1986 Shaka Zulu TV series in South Africa in spite of economic sanctions. After the cancellation of Robotech II: The Sentinels, a number of the staff were recruited to work at Saban Entertainment. The company’s public profile then fell into a near-dormant state for much of the 1990s, and its flagship Robotech franchise also fell into a state of neglect. Harmony Gold appears to have rebounded on the DVD medium with the success of its Robotech series, released in partnership with ADV Films.
The company also has interests in real estate in the Southern California area, as well as a Los Angeles screening room.

Famous quotes containing the words harmony, gold and/or usa:
“Nothing could be so beautiful, so smart, so well drilled as the two armies. Trumpets, fifes, oboes, drums, cannons formed a harmony such as was never heard in hell.... Candide, trembling like a philosopher, hid himself as best he could during this heroic butchery.”
—Voltaire [François Marie Arouet] (1694–1778)
“The majority of the men of the North, and of the South and East and West, are not men of principle. If they vote, they do not send men to Congress on errands of humanity; but while their brothers and sisters are being scourged and hung for loving liberty,... it is the mismanagement of wood and iron and stone and gold which concerns them.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“It is hereby earnestly proposed that the USA would be much better off if that big, sprawling, incoherent, shapeless, slobbering civic idiot in the family of American communities, the City of Los Angeles, could be declared incompetent and placed in charge of a guardian like any individual mental defective.”
—Westbrook Pegler (1894–1969)
