We are very honored to present these awards to two acclaimed members of the entertainment community. Their contributions to film and literature merit this UNESCO recognition for World Culture.”— Ioannis Maronitis, President of UNESCOATHENS, GREECE, July 17, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ — Two creators based in the United States were honored today with UNESCO World Culture Awards, delivered by Ionannis Maronitis, President of UNESCO European and North American Federation.
Eric Parkinson, CEO of Hannover House (OTC: HHSE), was given the award for his lifelong dedication to quality feature film production and distribution. In addition, filmmaker and best-selling novelist Vivian Schilling also received an award for her contributions to World Culture via Literature.
Parkinson has been involved in feature film production and distribution for more than four decades, with his first #1 U.S. release coming in 1984 through “Summer Olympic Highlights,” a documentary co-produced with ABC Sports. Since then, Parkinson has managed the release of over 1,500 movies—including multiple Oscar-winning films—and has produced more than seventy films, the latest being the currently popular streaming title “WILDFIRE: The Legend of the Cherokee Ghost Horse.”
Vivian Schilling has achieved success across numerous facets of the entertainment industry, from acting to writing, directing, and producing feature films. Her UNESCO recognition is based on her critically acclaimed, best-selling novels “SACRED PREY” (St. Martins Press) and “QUIEUTUS” (Penguin-Putnam Group).
"We are very honored to present these awards to two acclaimed members of the entertainment community," said Ioannis Maronitis, President of UNESCO. "Their contributions to film and literature merit this recognition for World Culture."
Both Parkinson and Schilling are presently in Greece, preparing for the preproduction of a major feature thriller directed by Giorgos Papatheodorou. The upcoming film is rooted in the true story of the clandestine 17N group, whose actions aimed to focus global attention on political injustice in Greece. Full production is expected to begin this year, with several major stars vying for roles and aspirations set on Academy Awards recognition.
