Les Goldberg
While most of his high school peers were worried about exams and the latest school dance, Les Goldberg was busy planning a business. In 1984, he started LMG at age 17 with a $5,000 loan from a relative and the entrepreneurial spirit to succeed. His technological know how, natural sales ability and business management skills led LMG to become the $40+ million, award-winning company it is today. He began by renting video equipment from a one-room office. Little did he know it would grow into a nationwide supplier of video, audio, and lighting support services for Fortune 500 companies across the nation. His management style emphasizes teamwork and his strong recruiting skills have enabled him to place the right people in the right jobs. His team concept directs the company's efforts toward a common goal - dedication to LMG's clients and commitment to be the best.

Kevin McCabe
Recently promoted to Vice President of Technical Services, Kevin McCabe joined LMG's team over a decade ago as chief engineer after working for Disney MGM Studios for eight years as a maintenance engineer. Since then, he has played a vital role in the advancement of LMG's technology, supervising and expanding the company's engineering department, and maintaining the quality control of the firm's show packages and inventory. McCabe was instrumental in the design and build of the company's HD-1 and HD-2 systems, which are the world's first two high-definition switcher systems. Each designed around a Snell & Wilcox Kahuna switcher, the HD systems allow LMG to integrate multiple media formats while simultaneously feeding the screens in HD and recording in standard definition - in a way no other company can. McCabe is now responsible for working with clients to find technical solutions to support their show needs as well as overseeing the firm's technical services department, and equipment logistics, and labor logistics team.
