Bentley Meeker is the principal in Bentley Meeker Lighting & Staging Inc. and is widely acknowledged as one of North America's leading experts in lighting.

Then, he was a film and video gaffer and in-house lighting technician at New York's Palladium. In 1988, the Writer's Guild strike drove him to focus more heavily on event design. He went on to work on projects as diverse as studio-release feature films and commercials to live performances by the likes of Aerosmith, Neil Diamond, Triumph, and Eddie Murphy, to name a few. Each of these career moves has allowed him to develop an extensive range of lighting skills.
