RON RUSSELL studied Music Industry Business at the Musicians Institute in 2003-2004. During his time at the Institute he interned at ASCAP in LA. He got serious about writing 11 years ago and workshopped in the NSAI programs for 10 years. Ron is an active member of The SongwritersHall of Fame and The New York Songwriters Collective attending workshop programs.
These days Ron is busy writing and pitching songs through his "Hollywood Dreams Publishing" ASCAP company along with networking everyday with industry people both in person and on the computer. Ron says, "The success that I am getting now comes mostly from listening, taking notes, and developing working relationships with featured speakers at workshops at the Collective." Ron has made inroads this past year in getting his songs and music heard and placed! The Collective is proud of his achievements and dedication to songwriting and we are grateful to have him in the Collective community!
