Dave Hollis’s career:

Dave Hollis who was born in California on February 14, 1975, went to the local private school before graduating from Pepperdine University with a Bachelor of Arts in organizational communication.

He started out in public relations, working with Bragman Nyman Cafarelli. Later, he worked for well-known companies including Fox Broadcasting Company, Twentieth Century Fox, and ultimately Disney, where he contributed to a number of films during his stay, including Black Panther, Beauty and the Beast, Avengers, and Star Wars.

Many of Disney’s most successful box office successes, including Marvel Studios’ “The Avengers,” Lucasfilm’s “Star Wars: The Force Awakens,” and Pixar’s animated children’s movie “Frozen,” were released during Hollis’ tenure as head of Disney’s distribution operations.

Disney was the leading studio in terms of its domestic market share the year before Hollis left, capturing 22% of ticket sales and dominating rivals despite having made fewer pictures.

Hollis received enormous recognition for his work on Disney movies in 2017, which brought in more than $6 billion globally. This made it all the more surprising when he left the firm less than a year later.

Shortly after leaving Disney, Hollis was named the president of Chic Media, a Texas-based production firm founded by his then-wife Rachel.
