Richard Foos began his career with a small record store on Santa Monica Boulevard, which grew into Rhino Records—one of the most influential reissue labels in music history. Alongside Harold Bronson, Foos helped pioneer “reissue culture,” reviving both hit records and overlooked genres like garage rock and soul for new audiences. Rhino became known not just for its catalog, but for its elaborate, collectible packaging, transforming music releases into immersive fan experiences. After Rhino was acquired by Time Warner in 1998, Foos stayed on until 2002 before co-founding Shout! Factory, which applied the same high-quality, fan-focused approach to television and film, releasing definitive editions of cult favorite shows.
Widely regarded as a visionary in entertainment, Foos built his reputation on a “fan first” philosophy—emphasizing thoughtful curation, premium packaging, and deep archival content. Shout! Studios now operates under Radial Entertainment, where he continues as a consultant. Beyond business, Foos is also active in philanthropy and social impact, serving in leadership roles across several nonprofit and community organizations. He has been married for over 30 years to therapist Shari Foos, founder of The Narrative Method, and their son Henry Hanson is an award-winning filmmaker.
