A very well-known figure in the entertainment lighting industry, Brad Schiller joins GLP to lead the new Lighting Technology Engagement Team,
based out of the company’s Americas headquarters in Los Angeles, California.
In a decades spanning career, Schiller has been at the forefront of many lighting innovations that have made their way into the mainstream from his work with manufacturers, whilst also being the author of multiple industry articles and books, including The Automated Lighting Programmer’s Handbook and Living the Lighting Life. He has also been a featured speaker, most recently at the Showlight Quadrennial in Dijon, France.
Speaking of the new hire, GLP Director Mark Ravenhill said, “I couldn’t be happier that Brad has decided to join GLP. He is an industry legend with a stature, reputation and knowledge that will make him the perfect fit in GLP where we pride our relationships and our reputation above all else.”
In his role as Director of Lighting Technology Engagement, Schiller will lead the section of the company tasked with actively engaging with designers, programmers, specifiers and all users — and future users — of the GLP product range.
Talking about the new role Schiller said, “GLP is a fantastic company with some wonderfully creative products. I am looking forward to working with the team to bring existing and new fixtures to the industry. The passion within GLP is exhilarating and I am thrilled to be joining this organization that I have always admired.”
Brad Schiller will be based in Austin, Texas.
