Harkins Theaters The story of how Harkins Theatres grew from a single movie house in Tempe to the Southwest's largest independent exhibition company begins with Dan's father, Dwight "Red" Harkins. In 1933 at the height of the Depression, Red opened Tempe Arizona's first movie house, The State Theatre. By 1973, Red had built a chain of 5 movie theatres throughout the Valley. In 1974, Red passed away leaving his oldest son Dan, a junior at ASU and General Manager of the chain, as head of the family business. http://www.harkinstheatres.com/
