Russ -

I believe their Entertainment division is involved with home videos and television licensing - the "Madeline" series comes to mind as one of their successes - but other than that, I have not dug up any more specifics. I did read somewhere that they had something going on with Sony, but what that involves - or did involve - I haven't found out yet.

I do know that the classic "Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer" animation we all watch on TV every year is a Golden Books Production! :)
