About

Caleb began his professional career in New York City, after graduating with honors from Sarah Lawrence College with a degree in the History of Art. His first jobs were at Sotheby’s in the Textiles department, Christies in the Fine Wine department and the Guggenheim Museum in the Curatorial department. His responsibilities in these positions included appraisals and cataloging, acquisition and deaccession as well as educational programming and client services. All of these activities and proficiencies would come to serve him well in the future.

Eventually Caleb started to gravitate away from the still image towards the moving one and promptly immersed himself in the vibrant film and television community in New York City. Starting work from the ground up as a production assistant in the A.D. department, he then went on to produce several short and feature length independent films. Soon he found a truer calling in the world of advertising and commercial film production. Viewing the work he was collaborating on as tiny movies, thirty second pieces of art, he excelled in the process and quickly rose up through the production ranks from Production Coordinator to Line Producer.

His steady development as a Line Producer was augmented by two complimentary assignments. The first was his time as an interim Executive Producer at the Brand New School where he fulfilled those customary responsibilities while the company was conducting a search for their next permanent E.P. The second position was as a Consultant to the Marketing Department at C.A.A. where he worked with the Creative and Account sides to pitch new business and help streamline the internal production pipeline to maximize efficiencies.

Both of these positions lend Caleb a unique perspective to the process: one that is acutely aware of larger creative and immediate production needs while also being sensitive to the broader Client based requirements typically expressed.

On a daily basis Caleb uses his formal and practical education in the arts to identify the beauty and elegance within the creative he is engaging with and advocating for. His deep well of experience allows him to offer up unique and harmonious approaches to solving the inevitable challenges that arise during the production process. Importantly, his hard wiring allows him to navigate the egos and personalities which permeate the Advertising business ensuring not just a a top-tier product but also an enjoyable and easy process which is so critical to Agencies and Clients in the current climate.

Caleb is currently based in Los Angeles where he lives with his family. The things which brought him to the marketing and production side over twenty years ago are still the ones which most excite him today: creating compelling movies, telling strong stories, creating culture, and doing it all within clear technical and budgetary parameters.

Caleb is also an active member of the Directors Guild of America as an Assistant Director and Unit Production Manager.
