After an education in business and law, Schaffer began a 20 plus year career in commercial production. After working his way up the ranks in line production, working with many leading production companies and directors, Perry began a long-term association with the late, great Griner/Cuesta & Associates.
Schaffer brought director/photographer Neal Slavin to Griner/Cuesta, developed his career and then left with him to form Slavin Schaffer in October 1991. Their work collected many industry awards including recognition in the AICP MOMA show. In 1997 Schaffer sold his interest in Slavin Schaffer and opened Schaffer & Co., since renamed SchafferRogers.
In the fall of 1998, Perry founded WheresSpot, the wildly popular and ubiquitous industry website / bulletin board. WheresSpot has grown to over 5000 subscribers worldwide posting over 100 industry related message per day.
Schaffer lives in bucolic Montclair, NJ with his wife, Lisa, teenage twins Jeremy and Susannah, and dog, Sally Sky.
After completing a pair of degrees in marketing and film at Syracuse University's Newhouse School, Rogers made his way to Los Angeles to begin on the road to fame and fortune.
After stints in the production and marketing department at KCET-TV and in the advertising/publicity department at Warner Bros. Studios, Corey shifted to representing talent in the commercial production industry.
He started as a rep for illustrators, animators and photographers at Famous Frames Inc. in Los Angeles before relocating to New York to open FF's office there – taking it from infancy to an industry leader in 3 years. A year and a half stretch as a rep/producer followed at commercial/broadcast promo company 11/11 Productions. He joined Schaffer & Co., now SchafferRogers, in the spring of 2000.
Corey lives in Manhattan with his beloved, Tricia.
