Born of Irish and Greek heritage, with a deep love of Music, Art and Film.

Intrepid, Optimistic, and a true force of nature-armed with a Fearless Wild Imagination and a Heart for Collaboration.

Passionately Inspired, Richard's Adventures have escalated in the second decade of the 21st Century. 

His Swashbuckling Quest for Truth, the Now, the New, and the Next, has rapidly intensified taking him further into Unexplored Territories and Realms.

His Unique Thinking, Fresh Powerful Insights, Profound Creative Vision, and Unwavering Mettle—enable him to maintain his Beginner’s Mind. Listen, Learn and Collaborate with others. Connect, Share New Ideas and Different Perspectives. While Breaking Bread, Building Bridges, Breaking down Barriers, and Bringing people Together. Driven by a defining decision in 2011 to return completely to the source—to Truth, the root of his inspiration, his artistic foundation, and his soul—Richard placed the Richard Maher Agency on hiatus. Stripping away the title of artist-entrepreneur, he executed a total reinvention to place his own creative endeavors front and center as a pure artist.

For fifteen years, he has been locked deep within the technical craft of his sonic and visual laboratories—mastering art gallery development, recording studio development, audio engineering, music and recording production, vinyl DJing, cassette mixtape production, movie soundtrack albums, and bespoke sound system design. In parallel, a disciplined journey since 2020 has been dedicated to mastering his acting craft via Stanislavski, Strasberg, Adler, Chekhov, Hagen, Laban, Meisner, and Esper—integrated with intensive training in Theatre Production Design, Set Design, Costume Design, Voice Training and Directing. Today, his raw execution is fiercely informed by Improvisation, Experimentation, Spontaneity, Musashi, Nichiren, and Zen.

Richard is Currently Creating Bespoke Experiences in the Transformative worlds of Music, Art, Fashion, Live Performance, and Film. He is actively developing new live works and immersive experiences, intentionally engaging, collaborating, and creating alongside a new generation of talented artists on their own creative paths and journeys.
