edit data

Ric Rae was born in the deepest, darkest South London, in the UK, but his blood is Portuguese/Indian via the cultural heritage of Guyana in South America (it's complicated!).

He has worked in bars on Greek islands, done deals on yachts in Cannes and burnt the candle at both ends with clients in Las Vegas.

Since 2002 he's been a director of a tech company within the TV & film rights industry, and recently he co-founded a health company. He once saw a chicken smoking a hookah with a smurf. He married that smurf.

Ric lives by the sea in Brighton with his wife and two daughters.

Ric’s Quotes

“If the doors of perception were cleansed every thing would appear to man as it is, Infinite. For man has closed himself up, till he sees all things thro' narrow chinks of his cavern.”
