Richard Meyer, A man of many talents and various previous careers has brought  his expertise, business acumen creativity and intelligence to the art of acting as a full time endeavor.  He wrote produced and starred in two movies in Maine where he resided for the past ten years  He also acted in over twenty films there and here in LA (been here 11 months).

At sixteen Richard fell in love with the concept of being a Renaissance man. To that end he has succeeded in many trades. He taught in public school for four years.  With his reading group, that jumped an average of four years in reading skills in one year, he produced plays with his students who presented these to other classes in the school.  One included building seven foot dinosaurs that had elements of animatronics capability.  Richard saw to all details in these productions from costume design to choreography, to sound tracks superimposed over the live action.  The principal of the school was so impressed that he insisted on additional shows so parents and town people could attend as well.

After teaching Richard worked as a chef, another of his interests in the NYC area in an Italian upscale restaurant.  Also at this time he transitioned to a successful sales career of upscale items.  This provided his ability to move to Maine, a place he loved for its beauty.  Once there he  felt the need for further education, so he went again to college for fine arts and acting for camera, a secret burning interest. The products of note of this move was a sculpture that got him notice from a curator of the Metropolitan Museum of Natural History in NYC.  It was suggested to him to do a sculpture that glorifies the beauty of femininity in the form of a representational statue of female beauty.  If he finds the right model this will be done in the future. Also at this time he initiated the beginnings of a film career with no small acclaim for his acting ability. For four years Richard studied all aspects of movie production as well as acting and finally last year he got in his truck and drove the 3300 miles to LA, alone, eyes on the prize .  He immediately got a lead role in an exciting new series with David Heavener Entertainment that he is now helping to produce.  He also did five other films and a play in the 11 months he has been here.  With his typical commitment  Richard has totally dedicated himself, body, mind and soul to the consummation of all his previous careers, acting.  His motto is, "I'll do it or I'll be dead.  In the first case I will be happy and in the second I won't care."
