Speaker Bio:
Jeremy Garelick is a filmmaker, writer, and entrepreneur reinventing Hollywood comedy with brains, heart, and a whole lot of chutzpah.
A Yale grad who went from the CAA mailroom to director Joel Schumacher’s right hand, Garelick sold his first script in 2002 and co-wrote the production draft of The Hangover, launching one of the biggest comedy franchises ever. He’s since written or directed The Break-Up, The Wedding Ringer, The Binge, Murder Mystery 2, and the upcoming Rolling Loud, starring Owen Wilson, Matt Rife, and Travis Scott.
In 2017, he founded American High, transforming an abandoned high school in Syracuse, NY into an entertainment studio that focuses on creating coming-of-age films and media. The teen-comedy powerhouse has cranked out over 20 films and launched a digital network with nearly 11 million followers and 8 billion views – electrifying youth culture with edgy, relatable content. Under the American High banner, Garelick has provided a nationally recognized educational hub for opportunities in entertainment, tech, and media through the Academy at American High. He is also a champion of ethical AI – working with his team to prove that technology shouldn’t replace storytellers, it should supercharge them.
Named one of The Hollywood Reporter’s Top Innovators and winner of the 2023 STEAM Company of the Year Award, Garelick continues to do so much more than just create the leading teen-focused media company. He is directing a movement capturing the chaotic brilliance of youth, cultivating creators, and rewriting the entertainment playbook.
