He was an aide to Leopold Stokowski, assisting him in recording and opera productions as the Metropolitan Opera and New York City Opera. With Stokowski, he helped form the American Symphony Orchestra in 1962, serving as its general manager until 1968.

In 1968, he joined Carnegie Hall as House Manager. He eventually became the Hall’s Executive Director.


From 1986 to 1999, he was the Executive Vice President and Director of the Conductor’s Division at ICM Artists, Ltd.
