NEW YORK, USA // Noah Lerner is a Creative Director and Producer in constant pursuit of stories about athletes and achievements that transcend sports and captivate audiences.

A media veteran of 25 years, he’s worked lots of amazing companies, including ESPN, ESPN Classic, NFL Films, HBO, and Showtime Sports.

He’s a four-time Sports Emmy winner and enjoyed oh-so-subtly displaying those awards on zoom calls for a number of years, until his teenagers reminded him that this is incredibly cringe.

He is currently hard at work on a documentary focused on the meteoric rise of Pickleball and it’s transformative power on weekend warriors across the country. A project that grew out of a love for a game that – while not replacing basketball as his first love, is a lot easier on the ole knees.
