About Richard Ehrlich
Playwright, composer, lyricist, author, recording artist, visual artist and creator of Meldio.
As a visual artist, Richard begins with his own original hand drawings in pencil or charcoal—sometimes on something as simple as a Post-it note—and develops selected works using digital and generative-AI tools. His original drawing and concept remain the foundation of each finished work.
His theatrical work includes three original musicals—All at Once!, TONIC: Finding Euphoria and The Breath: Coming Home—and six stage plays: The Weight, The Third Chair, Fearless Secrets, The Interview, The Long Present and The Outlier.
Richard's GoYou inspirational series, written under the pen name Jack Cummings, offers practical wisdom and encouragement for readers discovering their potential and living authentically.
Richard is a member of the Dramatists Guild of America and operates GoYou Brands, LLC. He lives in New York.
