Michael Barker Co-Creator/Show Runner of American Dad

DriveSavers recovered critical data from Michael Barker’s, Co-Creator/Show Runner of American Dad, hard drive back in 2005. Check out this video from our archives.

Video Transcript

My name is Mike Barker and I’m the Co-creator and Showrunner of American Dad. And I also had a lot of all my business records, my accounting records for the last few years, all on that hard drive. So it was a nervous time for us. You got back everything that I had on that drive and you know, you guys sent it back on the disks and sent me back my old hard drive, which was also helpful because I was able to have Apple replace it with the warranty.

So you know, I saved a little money there, which was nice. Always, back up. Always. I know it’s annoying to back up, but if you’re like me and that lesson quickly fades and you run into trouble, I would definitely go to DriveSavers. You’re in great hands.
