Mike Tatsugawa

Mike Tatsugawa (born 1968, in Los Angeles, CA) is currently the chairman of Pacific Media Expo (PMX).

He was one of the four founders of Cal-Animage Alpha at the University of California, Berkeley in 1989. He subsequently founded a chapter of Cal-Animage at San Francisco State University in 1991. 

He is probably best remembered as a public figurehead for several anime conventions spanning more than a decade. These have included Anime Con (which after a year disbanded to form Anime Expo in 1992) as Vice Chairman, Anime Expo as Chairman in varying years, and Anime Expo New York as Chairman. He is also the founder and former CEO of Anime Expo's parent organization, the Society for the Promotion of Japanese Animation (SPJA). 

Following a management dispute with the SPJA board of directors, Tatsugawa left to form PMX in 2004.
