Andrew Hongo, son of local entertainers Randy and Gay Hongo, has turned documentary filmmaker. A January graduate of New York University with a master’s in broadcast journalism, Andrew’s “Legacy,” a 40-minute short, tapped his mission work with the street children of Cambodia. The film profiles two young men — a successful, national champion boxer and and another who still was living on the streets — linked to a broader issue of Pol Pot’s legacy for the children of Cambodia. The film debuted last week at Docutah, the Southern Utah Film Festival, with one more screening on Wednesday. Consequently, Andrew has started an indie film production company, Shearwater Films, with two fellow NYU grads. He since has landed a job with CNN, working for “GPS,” a news show with Fareed Zakaria. …

Randy and Gay Hongo also have been busy, completing a six-week concert tour of mainland churches, schools, rehab centers and nursing homes in California, Kentucky, Illinois, Massachusetts and New York. The Hongos, who both turned 64 in July, are also working on a CD with producer Robert Shinoda of Nueva Vida. …

WHO’S WHERE: Fred

Honda, former general manager of the Halekulani and Oahu Country Club, is back in the hospitality biz — as senior sales manager of the Hilton Universal City in Los Angeles. His mission? “Prospecting new business in Illinois, Colorado, Texas and Hawaii,” he said. The Hilton, adjacent to Universal Studios, is managed by local boy (Maui) Juan Aquinde, so it’s a reunion of sorts; both worked for Myrtle Lee at Island Holidays and with Amfac Hotels. Two years ago, Honda and wife Julie relocated to Loveland, Colo., from where he can do his hotel job. …

Thinking out loud: At the recent MTV Video Awards, Lady Gaga appeared as a guy (her alter ego Jo Calderone). A People magazine survey said she/he most looked like Ray Romano (“Everybody Loves Raymond”) but to me the disguise was a dead ringer for Hawaii News Now’s traffic dude, Taizo Braden. …
