Charles Roven is an American film producer. He has been in the business for over 20 years. He is co-founder of Atlas Entertainment and its affiliated company Atlas/Third Rail Management, which in 1999 became part of Mosaic Media Group, an integrated multimedia film, television and management company where he serves as a founding principal. Roven took over Atlas after an eight-year partnership with music manager Robert Cavallo, who left in 1998. The company's success also benefited from Roven's now deceased wife, Dawn Steel, who joined from her former post as president of Columbia Pictures. One of the industry's most diverse filmmakers, Roven has spearheaded a broad slate of projects, overseeing production or serving as producer of Heart Like a Wheel (1983), 12 Monkeys (1995), Batman Begins (2005), The Dark Knight (2008) and American Hustle (2013) and many more. Roven began his career as a talent manager, subsequently bringing an attuned sensibility of working with artists to the realm of production.
