Gerry Rich to Discuss CHASING HOLLYWOOD at The Music Hall
The marketing veteran's new book blends memoir and film history with insights from the 1990s and 2000s.
On Sunday, October 25 at 7pm, marketing veteran Gerry Rich will visit The Music Hall Lounge with his new book, CHASING HOLLYWOOD. Blending memoir, film history, and practical marketing insight, the book covers Rich's time behind some of the most iconic films of the 1990s and 2000s, from Iron Man to James Bond. Rich examines how some of the most memorable movies of the last two generations captured public attention and shaped culture, while offering lessons for anyone trying to stand out in a crowded marketplace.
The 7pm event includes an author discussion moderated by New York Times bestselling co-author Mark Dagostino, followed by an audience Q&A. It will be held at The Music Hall Lounge at 131 Congress St., in Portsmouth, New Hampshire.

Named by Ad Age as one of the Top 100 Marketers in America (across all industries), Gerry has proven his talents as a marketing executive at Columbia Pictures, DeLaurentis Entertainment Group, Miramax, Miramax/Disney, MGM, Paramount, and MGM/United Artists. He has also consulted for Universal Pictures and for some of the world's top film financiers.
Mark Dagostino made his career co-authoring books that inspire and uplift. After establishing a journalistic foundation at The Boston Globe, Mark spent ten years on staff at People Magazine, tailoring articles to the tastes and desires of 40 million readers per week.
