Production career and Tab Hunter

The two formed Fox Run Productions[2] and raised money to produce the film Lust in the Dust,[3][4] released in 1985, starring Hunter, Divine, and Lainie Kazan.[5][6][7] Glaser's next film, Dark Horse, was based on a story by Hunter.[8] The feature starred Mimi Rogers and Ed Begley, Jr.[9] It premiered at the Cannes Film Festival.[10]
Glaser talked Hunter into writing his autobiography, Tab Hunter Confidential, which became a New York Times bestseller.[11][12] Glaser turned the book into a documentary in 2015, also entitled Tab Hunter Confidential.[13][14] In June 2018, The Hollywood Reporter announced that Glaser would produce a feature film for Paramount Pictures based on the documentary with Bad Robot Productions/J. J. Abrams tentatively entitled Tab & Tony.[15]
