Salomon has resided in Los Angeles, California since the late 1980s, and is married to American assistant Director Nancy Blewer. He is a member of the Directors Guild of America and the American Society of Cinematographers.
In 1993, Salomon directed A Far Off Place, an adventure drama film filmed on location in Namibia and Zimbabwe, replacing original Director René Manzor after being recommended to Producer Kathleen Kennedy by Steven Spielberg. That same year, he directed an episode of the short-lived science fiction series Space Rangers, beginning a long and respectable career as one of the most acclaimed and prolific television Directors of the era. In 1998, he directed the Emmy-nominated Aftershock: Earthquake in New York, the first in many television miniseries which Saloman would helm. The most notable of these was Band of Brothers, a critically acclaimed 10-part series executive produced by Spielberg for which Salomon won a Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Directing for a Limited Series, Movie, or Dramatic Special and a Christopher Award.
