Ron Currier: Partner &
President
Ron got his start in the industry while serving
as an NCO in the U.S. Air Force. Some of his early
projects as a projectionist were Muhammad Ali
prize fights, medical television such as Dr. Debakey’s
open heart surgery close circuit training events,
and the introduction of “Breakfast at McDonald's.”
He was fascinated with these events, and quickly
decided he’d found what he wanted to do
when he grew up.
Following discharge after eight years of active
service, Ron relocated to New York City. Here
he helped develop projects as diverse as Papal
Coronation Ceremonies, World Cup Soccer, and large
networks of over 100 cities for Presidential Inaugural
Galas. Ron’s responsibilities grew to encompass
all facets of event staging services.
After 12 years in the Big Apple, Ron decided it
was time to strike out on his own. He then moved
to Dallas, founded Currier Imaging, married and
began a family. In 1997 Ron teamed with Scott
Williams, a long-time friend, colleague and customer,
to found Quince Imaging
Ron continues to revel in an industry that affords
him the opportunity to meet and work with such
leaders in their fields as Pope John Paul II,
Mother Teresa, Ayn Rand, six U.S. Presidents,
Sam Walton, Marlon Perkins, Elvis Presley, Frank
Sinatra, and Mick Jagger
Ron, his wife Carol, and their daughter Charlotte
still live in Dallas, Texas centering their lives
on family, friends and colleagues, high character
and strong values. Ron actively pursues extracurricular
interests such as the support of the Girl Scouts,
motorcycling, and philately (stamp collecting).
