John Tarnoff
John Tarnoff is a reinvention career coach, speaker and author who helps his fellow baby boomers transition to meaningful and sustainable careers beyond traditional retirement. Fired 39% of the time over his 35-year career as a Los Angeles-based film producer, studio executive and tech entrepreneur, he reinvented himself at age 50, going back to school to earn a counseling M.A. in Spiritual Psychology. This transition to a career focused on training and career development brought him back to entertainment, where he served as Head of Show Development for DreamWorks Animation from 2003-2009, developing culture-changing creative leadership training and college recruiting programs. Since 2010, he co-runs the Los Angeles-based Entertainment Industry Management master’s degree program for Carnegie Mellon University. He is the author of the forthcoming book: "Boomer Reinvention: How to Create Your Dream Career after 50." Learn more about him at http://johntarnoff.com.
