Lovett, Richard — Creative Artists Agency
President and Co-Chairman
Creative Artists Agency
THE LATEST: CAA's three co-chairmen — Lovett, Bryan Lourd and Kevin Huvane — announced in April that they would give up their salaries this year after the talent agency instituted Covid-related salary cuts for the staff. Away from the agency, Lovett has teamed with the Anthony and Jeanne Pritzker Family Foundation and the Ballmer Group to launch a fund to aid public school students in need amid the coronavirus pandemic. Each party seeded the fund with a $250,000 contribution.
BACKGROUND: Lovett began his career in the mailroom of CAA before rising through the ranks in the motion picture department. He was appointed president of CAA in 1995 and in 1996 helped create the CAA Foundation, which works to involve the entertainment community in philanthropy, with a focus on education. Lovett is chairman of the Entertainment Industry Foundation&s Think It Up national education initiative. He also sits on the board of DonorsChoose.org. Lovett has been honored for his activism, earning the Shoah Foundation&s Ambassador for Humanity Award, presented by Steven Spielberg.
