Ron Meyer’s zodiac sign is Virgo. According to astrologers, Virgos are always paying attention to the smallest details and their deep sense of humanity makes them one of the most careful signs of the zodiac. Their methodical approach to life ensures that nothing is left to chance, and although they are often tender, their heart might be closed for the outer world. This is a sign often misunderstood, not because they lack the ability to express, but because they won’t accept their feelings as valid, true, or even relevant when opposed to reason. The symbolism behind the name speaks well of their nature, born with a feeling they are experiencing everything for the first time.

The early years: Meyer says his zeal for film was instilled by his Jewish immigrant parents who were avid film-goers during the golden era of cinema (1930-1955). His early passion coupled with his dedication and service to the The United States Marine Corps ushered a nineteen-year-old Meyer into the freshmen ranks of Hollywood.

The 'Agent' and the full-service Agency became the rebuilt foundation for the movie business. Seeing an opportunity to establish a new agency, Meyer and a small group of Agents forged out in 1975 and formed the 'Creative Artists Agency'.
By the mid 1980s a new era of deal making found its cord and the art of packaging a picture became a cost effective way to group the talent, financing and get the all important green-light for a motion picture.
In 1995 the Seagram Company, led by Edgar Bronfman Jr., offered Meyer the position of President and Chief Operating Officer of Universal Studios. He is now the longest serving Studio Chief in Hollywood history.
