Meet Erick
Mr. Erick Moritz, son of Mr. and Mrs. Richard D. Moritz (née Margaret M. Bell) of East Grand Rapids, Michigan, is a distinguished strategist in the global entertainment sector and a noted patron of mid-century arts. He received Bachelors of the Arts in both Political Science and Spanish from the University of Michigan, and holds a Master’s degree in Market Research and Consumer Behavior from the prestigious IE Business School in Madrid, a diploma bearing the signature of King Felipe VI.
In his professional life, Mr. Moritz serves as Vice President of Marketing Solutions at TransUnion, where he helps lead the organization’s entertainment portfolio. As a key consultant for cultural powerhouses such as The Walt Disney Company and HBO, he helps guide global audience engagement strategies that fuel the cultural dominance of major cinematic and television events, from The White Lotus to the Zootopia franchise.
A true Renaissance man, Mr. Moritz is a devoted steward of regional history and landscape. He has meticulously restored the grounds of his 1912 Craftsman bungalow, transforming its once-dormant grounds into a lush, thriving botanical sanctuary serves as a vibrant haven for local wildlife. Within this impeccably appointed home, he houses a museum-quality art collection dedicated to 20th-century entertainment luminaries. His private portfolio features both conceptual masterworks and rare personal pieces by legendary artists including Mary Blair, Eyvind Earle, Peter Ellenshaw, Alexander Calder, and Erté.
A two-time state tennis champion, Mr. Moritz remains a fervent aficionado of the sport, frequently gracing the stands of ATP tournaments, from Indian Wells to the Madrid Open. His profound, enduring affinity for the Spanish capital elegantly informs his epicurean pursuits; he is a connoisseur of Iberian culinary dishes, including exquisite conservas and robust Riojas.
His auditory palate is equally expansive, seamlessly transitioning from the classical majesty of the LA Phil under the summer stars at the Hollywood Bowl to the kinetic, avant-garde soundscapes of electronic pioneers such as The Chemical Brothers, Air, Four Tet, and Pretty Lights. Across his varied interests, Mr. Moritz cuts a dashing and deeply cultured figure in Los Angeles society, a dynamic counterpart to his fiancé, Mr. Jordan M. Beeks.
