Richard Reichgut
executive producer |
After graduating from the University of Texas with a bachelor's
degree in computer science, Mr. Reichgut immediately began
to apply his technology skills in the defense industry facilitating
projects such as General Dynamics's Electric Boat division
as a systems engineer at Harris Corporation. Following that,
Reichgut entered the financial services industry by holding
various technical management positions at Quotron-which was
later purchased by CitiCorp.
Always a pulse on the future of technology, and impressed
with the direction of Sun Microsystems, Mr. Reichgut left
Quotron to join the Sun team, where he worked for the next
10 years, again holding technical management positions-this
time in engineering, sales and marketing. Additionally, Reichgut
championed the internet-wave when it was just in its infancy,
and became influential in spearheading Sun's Java development
and sales venture divisions.
After more than a decade at this technology bell-weather firm,
the idea of joining a "start-up" became attractive
to Reichgut; thus, he left Sun Microsystems to join the first
of two smaller firms. First, he served as vice president of
business development at Novera Software, an application server
company (now Mercator Software), and in January of 1998, Reichgut
joined New Era of Networks, Inc., where he served as a vice
president of marketing. He currently is Vice President of Marketing
at AuthentiDate, Inc.
Reichgut's involvement in the arts began at a young age. In
fact, as a teenager he was enrolled as a student in the acting
program at the renowned Circle in the Square. In 1998, in an
attempt to balance his corporate and creative passions, Reichgut
joined James Ronald Whitney as the co-executive producer of
the movie "Just, Melvin," which premiered April 22, 2001 following
"The Sopranos" on HBO. Reichgut has continued to be the executive
producer of 3 more of Whitney's films. "TheWorkingGirl.com."
"Telling Nicholas" (which premiered May 19, 2002 following "Six
Feet Under" on HBO), and "Games People Play," which is currently
in pre-production. |
