The Ultimate Playlist of Noise

Through impactful storytelling, creative integrity and commercial appeal, Jeremy Garelick has aligned himself as an industry leader and innovator. Garelick is the co-founder of American High, an innovative production company specializing in provocative teen comedies with Mickey Liddell’s LD Entertainment. Since acquiring an abandoned school in Syracuse, NY, American High’s mission is to do for this generation what John Hughes did for audiences of the 1980’s: tell modern stories of diverse characters as they navigate the most formative years of their lives. In addition to producing multiple films per year, the company aims to finance and acquire a number of third-party films that align with the mission of the American High brand.
