Workshop Thought Leader: Greg Maurice

Greg Maurice was born and raised in Haiti before moving to Brooklyn at the age of 13. His career began in digital media at ICR Inc., a top 10 Investor Relations firm. He then pivoted to entertainment where he served as the Director of Marketing at eOne, where he launched their Black film division. His passion for serving underrepresented talent eventually led him to CSS Entertainment where he currently heads up the Black vertical as Sr. Director of Acquisitions and acquires entertainment content that is licensed to HBO, BET, Hulu, Showtime, Starz, Allblk, Amazon, etc. Greg’s passion for transforming the careers of immigrant professionals was birthed through his own challenges creating the “American Dream” in corporations that struggled to create environments where immigrants are set up for success.
