John Maynard

John Maynard is a highly successful producer of more than 30 years experience, both here and across the Tasman. He is recognised for his support and encouragement of emerging talent, often with risky and original films. Notably, he helped launch the feature filmmaking careers of directors Vincent Ward and Jane Campion.

He is a tremendously loyal person, with faith in other people’s abilities. At heart he is a very supportive producer.
