Perry, Richard: - Over his forty-six-year career, RICHARD PERRY has produced classic albums and singles with legendary artists. With musical influences crossing cultures, Perry has been one of very few producers to have #1 records on all four music charts: pop, urban, country, and dance. Born and raised in Brooklyn, New York, Perry developed his interest in Rock 'n' Roll very young. After graduating from the University of Michigan in 1964 with a degree in music and theater, he formed his own independent record production company, Cloud Nine Productions, in June of 1965. As Perry describes in his book the several events that took place in his life, he vividly provides his audience with a template of music history, as well as the myriad of fascinating people he encountered from all walks of art and life. In 1974 Perry created his own state-of-the-art recording complex, Studio 55. In 1978 he formed his own label, Planet Records, which was the home of The Pointer Sisters for eight years. He was named Producer Of The Year by Rolling Stone Magazine in 1973 and by Billboard Magazine in 1977 and again in 1984. He was presented with the Outstanding Achievement Award by the University Of Michigan and in 2014, he received a Special Merit Trustees Grammy Award by NARAS (National Academy of Recording Arts & Sciences), the Grammy for individuals who have made contributions of outstanding artistic significance in the field of recording.
