Lloyd Meyer was the president of Renner US, the world-renowned provider of piano keyboard actions. His long and productive career began with retail experience in Minnesota at the large Dayton Company. When the Dayton chain began carrying organs and pianos, Lloyd took a great interest in the instruments and has worked in the music industry ever since. He played a key role in the Lowrey Organ Company as they branched out into malls in the 1970s, and worked for CBS Musical where he was President of Steinway & Sons for several years. Over the years Lloyd has been a strong supporter of the NAMM Oral History program, providing invaluable resources and ideas.
