The Inimitable Hartley Peavey
Here's the first photo of Hartley Peavey (shot by Erik Waters) from our video/photo shoot this February at his corporate HQ in Meridian, Mississippi. In addition to laughing our asses off hearing Hartley tell stories (on and off camera), take us out to lunch, etc., we also were totally knocked out by the small portion of what we had time to see that day.
It was also mind-blowing to get a sense of how big his brand is on a global scale, and the various peripheral technology and industries he's involved with - such as equipping airports around the world with speakers and the technology to sort all those flight announcements you hear at those airports - heavy duty stuff.
One of the funniest things of the day (I thought): I asked Hartley why in the world he, of all people, would feel the need to wear a badge with his name on it? His answer: Because he makes every employee & visitor wear a name tag while on premises, he thought it was only fair that he did the same thing.
