About the Authors
PETER FRIEDMAN has spent his entire professional life as a television commercial and video producer. His five-decade career includes heading the Lucasfilms commercial production company, serving as the first Global Head of Television Production for Nike, running the worldwide broadcast production team for McCann Erickson, and acting as the production head for PGA TOUR Entertainment. From Michael Jordan to Justin Bieber, Bill Clinton to Bono, and Ted Kennedy to Tiger Woods, Peter has worked with an astounding list of celebrities. Having filmed around the world while largely based in New York and Los Angeles, Peter now lives more quietly in Newtown, Connecticut. But don’t call him retired; he’s still producing commercials and a variety of video content as a consultant for several top brands.

 
 
GRANT COPELAND is the President and Chief Creative Officer of WORX – a Connecticut-based marketing agency. A friend (and fan) of Peter’s, Grant casually remarked that he “might be able to help write something about your career” while the two drove to a New York Islanders game a few years ago. And now, here they are.
