A noted audio researcher and designer, Holman has a 1968 B.S. degree in communications from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. During his career, he has worked for the motion picture production center at the University of Illinois, Advent Corporation (chief electrical engineer, assisting Henry Kloss), Apt Corporation (founder and chief engineer), Lucasfilm Ltd. (corporate technical director), and the University of Southern California (professor in the school of cinema-television), and during this time also started his own company, TMH Corporation. His notable design achievements include the Advent radio and receiver, several television and loudspeaker designs, the highly-regarded Apt/Holman preamplifier and power amplifier, and perhaps most significant of all, the THX Sound System for both theater and home-audio use.
