Biographie de l'auteur

ABOUT THE AUTHOR Andy Teach is a thirty-year corporate veteran. He received seven promotions during his career and was most recently Vice-President, Network & Cable Research at a major television and motion picture studio in Los Angeles, California. Andy was an unlikely corporate soldier when he first graduated from college. At that time, he delayed joining the corporate world when he and a friend embarked on a three-week, 1300-mile journey from New Jersey to Florida by bicycle. After that, Andy decided that "in order to beat the establishment, you first must become a part of it" After his bicycle trip, he landed a position as an assistant media planner for a top ten advertising agency in New York City. He was promoted to media planner within six months. Andy then joined another advertising agency in New York as an assistant account executive. This agency specialized in motion picture advertising, which helped Andy later realize that his true calling was in the entertainment industry. Andy then moved to Los Angeles, where he worked for a year as a production assistant for a television production company. He got his big corporate break by getting a job at a major television and motion picture studio in the research department, where he worked for over twenty years! Andy started at the bottom rung as a research clerk and rose to the position of vice-president. Andy has appeared as a guest and commentator on several radio programs. He has lectured at over fifty colleges and universities including Stanford University, the University of Miami, Princeton University, UC Santa Barbara, California Lutheran University, and the University of Tampa.
