An Illustrated History.’ Rick’s a partner at literary agency The Blair Partnership, which manages J.K. Rowling, the Harry Potter films & brand and currently working on the BBC TV’s series of The Casual Vacancy. Rick has forty years in the entertainment industry from Vice-chair at the British Film Institute to Director at revived Hammer Film Productions and the Soho Theatre.

Rick Senat on IMDb“My current board positions include Cineworld plc, Bank Leumi (UK) plc and I am Chair of the London Film Museum. While at Warner I was associated with many outstanding films, filmmakers and film franchises including the extraordinary Harry Potter series. It was at Warner that I met Neil Blair and my joining him and his team at The Blair Partnership marks a business and personal step which is both challenging and enormously rewarding.”
