GERRY SCHWARTZ, President

Gerry’s extensive knowledge of payroll and business affairs for the entertainment industry stems from nearly thirty years of experience in the business. His unwavering dedication and loyalty to his clients has made him an effective advocate on their behalf when negotiating individual contracts, as well as positioning him as a sought after resource and participant in industry wide guild negotiations. Gerry developed his understanding of the many facets of the business during his tenure at industry giant, IDC. His focus on sessions and residuals for all performance categories under the AFM, SAG, & AFTRA agreements, as well as his work with the WGA, DGA, and IATSE contracts, for work in sound recording, commercials, television, film, and the internet, quickly made him an industry expert and led to his acquisition of TEAM in 2000. Since that time, Gerry has been instrumental in the growth of the TEAM’s three divisions, Artist Tours, Music, and Advertising & New Media, as well as the company’s joint partnership expansion into Australia and New Zealand.

MARK SULLIVAN, Chief Operating Officer

Mark’s unique blend of accounting, executive leadership, personal management and entertainment industry experience keeps TEAM’s systems and operations at their competitive best within the music, advertising and artists tours industries.

Mark began his career in finance at an international accounting firm Arthur Andersen where he audited both privately and publicly held companies. He then moved to MCA as an internal financial/information systems consultant, where he evaluated and instituted new systems for over 40 MCA subsidiaries. After five years at MCA, Mark was tapped as the Director of Operations for Polygram Records, handling personnel, recording administration, and operations for their west coast office. Mark expanded his area of expertise to include personal management within the entertainment industry when he left Polygram to become the COO for Left Bank Management. Soon after, his entrepreneurial interest was piqued, which inspired him to co-found Tribe, where he functioned as the firm’s COO for eleven years before joining TEAM.
