ENGLEWOOD — April 15 is the 100th anniversary of the sinking of the Titanic, and for Mike Robinson, it’s a special day.
Robinson, now an Englewood resident, was working as a film producer at International Studios in Orlando in 1987 when he was approached by an employee who asked him to invest in a venture to retrieve artifacts from the Titanic.
