Gordon Meyer
Creator-Executive Producer-Partner-Editor in Chief of Hollywood' s Master Storytellers
Gordon Meyer’s history in the entertainment industry began when, at the age of 12, he was hired to provide the voice of the iconic shoe mascot, Buster Brown, for an animated TV spot. His first celebrity interview took place with the late Hal Holbrook as a high school senior when Mr. Holbrook presented his celebrated one-man show, “Mark Twain Tonight!” in Mr. Meyer’s hometown of St. Louis.
As a student at the USC's world-famous School of Cinematic Arts, Mr. Meyer produced several all-star tributes celebrating the careers of Academy Award-winning visual effects artist Albert Whitlock, Academy Award-winning composer Jerry Goldsmith, the Walt Disney Studios with an emphasis on their animation department and celebrated playwright/screenwriter Neil Simon.
He created and launched Hollywood’s Master Storytellers in 2002 initially as a live, local event presented first at the renowned ArcLight Hollywood complex, then at the world-famous Grauman’s Chinese Theatres complex. In 2004, he succeeded HMS’s original host, famed CNN entertainment reporter Dennis Michael as the series’ host, along with his producing duties. For the reborn edition of Hollywood’s Master Storytellers, Mr. Meyer serves as Editor in Chief of the website and events including live, online and broadcast.
