John Little: The Bruce Lee, Ayn Rand & Mike Mentzer Connection

John Little is an author and award-winning filmmaker considered by many to be one of the world's foremost authorities on Bruce Lee, his training methods and philosophies. John, who directed, wrote and produced the notable documentaries "Bruce Lee: In His Own Words" & "Bruce Lee: A Warrior's Journey" for Warner Bros, and authored the book "The Warrior Within, The Philosophies of Bruce Lee," is the only person ever to be authorized by the legendary martial artist's estate to review the entirety of Lee's personal notes, sketches and reading annotations.

John's love of philosophy also led him to direct and produce the documentaries "Ayn Rand, In Her Own Words," and "The Making of The Fountainhead" for Warner Bros, a documentary based on Rands's breakout novel of an iconoclastic architect whose designs are so innovative they offend the architectural orthodoxy and city planners, the "second-handers" who seek to snuff out Roarke's ultra modernistic vision and force him to comply with tradition.

John is also highly regarded in the world of fitness and bodybuilding, having penned numerous articles for the Joe Weider publications Muscle & Fitness and FLEX magazine. and has written some of the most well-respected books on the subject of high-intensity training including "Body by Science," "Power Factor Training," and more recently "The Time Savers Workout." However, some of John's most notable endeavors in the world of bodybuilding stem from time spent working with (and as a close friend of) Mike Mentzer, the legendary Golden Era pro bodybuilder from the late 70s and 80s who was the only Mr. Olympia competitor to ever achieve a perfect score of 300 in winning the heavyweight class at the 1979 Mr. Olympia. John authored the book, "The Wisdom of Mike Mentzer" and Co-Authored the book "High-Intensity Training, The Mike Mentzer Way" with Mentzer himself.
