    The film and music industry is mourning the loss of celebrated Hollywood director Daniel Zirilli, who passed away on April 28 at the age of 58.

    Born on November 13, 1965, Zirilli made a name for himself in the entertainment industry at an early age.

    After his graduation from Pepperdine University in Malibu, he founded Popart Film Factory when he was only 24 and then went on to make a name for himself in Hollywood.

    Per his daughter's post, the funeral will be "small" "so we can just be together as a family."
