Graham Veysey

Graham Veysey is a Cleveland video producer, entrepreneur and neighborhood builder with a soft spot for walkable cities. Raised in Shaker Heights and a 2004 graduate of Bates College, he founded North Water Productions, an Emmy Award-winning video, animation and live event production company that has made work for Cleveland businesses, nonprofits and institutions such as the City Club of Cleveland and Playhouse Square for more than a decade. By 2018 the company had won four Emmy Awards, and it has since expanded to Rochester, New York.

Graham was also the head wine guy at MANCAN, the first exclusive wine-in-a-can company, which grew to distribution in more than 20 states. In 2010 he was named one of the young "Cleveland believers" of the Cleveland Coalition, and he worked on a six-acre urban farm on the near West Side that supplied produce to the West Side Market.

With architectural designer Marika Clark, he has collaborated on neighborhood work in Hingetown, the enclave at the edge of Ohio City.
