Vicki Blue (born September 16, 1959), now known as Victory Tischler Blue, is a bassist and film and television producer. She joined the all-girl rock group the Runaways in 1977 and appeared as a bassist on their albums Waitin' for the Night and And Now... The Runaways. She briefly had a band with singer Cherie Currie in the early '80s (Currie-Blue Band), but never released an album, though they did appear together in the film This is Spinal Tap.
After leaving the Runaways, she shifted her focus to film & television production, eventually becoming a producer/director for several reality and magazine based television shows, including Entertainment Tonight, Access Hollywood and Real Stories of the Highway Patrol - receiving an Emmy nomination along the way.
She went on to form Sacred Dogs Entertainment - a motion picture production company and released a documentary on The Runaways called Edgeplay: A Film About The Runaways. Edgeplay went on to win numerous awards and became the highest rated rock documentary film on the Showtime Networks.[citation needed] Victory Tischler-Blue is currently producing a film with another female rocker, Suzi Quatro, titled Naked Under Leather which is slated for worldwide release summer / 2007.
Focusing on music-driven productions, she is currently executive producing a network special: The Bee Gees "Unbroken Fever" - The 30th Anniversary of Saturday Night Fever (2007). Additionally, Tischler-Blue and ex-bandmate Lita Ford have teamed up together with Ford recording music for El Guitarista, an animated series that Sacred Dogs Entertainment is producing.
