Bennett Graebner is a film and television professional who is generally known for his work as an executive producer on a number of television shows including The Bachelor and The Bachelorette. Born in Buffalo, New York, he now resides in Los Angeles, California with his wife and two children. There, he works on his two flagship shows whilecontinuing to produce and develop additional television properties.Often considered a cultural phenomenon among television audiences, the producer’s shows have been presented with awards at a wide range of events including the Teen Choice Awards, the BMI Film & TV Awards, and the ASCAP Film and Television Awards. In addition to these recognitions, his shows are perennially top ratings performers that enjoy particular success in the coveted 18 - 34 demographic. With viewership still rising with respect to many metrics, his shows continue to push the bounds of longevity in the competitive world of television.One of the traits that many credit for the success of Bennett Graebner and the shows he executive produces is his understanding of story and narrative flow. As the television professional himself has pointed out on many occasions, successful film and television projects tend to follow similar guidelines with respect to how their stories are presented. In this respect, reality television is no different and the need for strong characters, plots, structure, and tension is paramount among aspects that help to drive viewership. One of the particular challenges for the executive producer’s shows is that these dramatic elements must be drawn from real-life events, rather than concocted from the imaginations of storytellers.In addition to his grasp of story and other production elements, the film professional’s ability to work with others on set has benefited from a career that has touched on multiple aspects of film production. This work has included time in the camera and electrical department on a variety of projects and has seen him in roles such as production assistant, best boy grip, and cinematographer. With this diverse range of experience contributing to his body of film knowledge, the producer is able to understand the particular challenges of producing a television show from multiple different points of view.A longtime patron of the arts, Bennett Graebner knew from an early age that he wanted to pursue a career in a creative field. To service that desire, he attended Vassar College for his undergraduate degree where he studied English and graduated Phi Beta Kappa. After his graduation, the producer went on to receive his MFA from the University of Southern California’s renowned school of cinematic arts. There, he collaborated with other film students to produce original projects, meet film professionals, and hone his ability to thrive in the entertainment industry. To this day the producer still participates in USC’s alumni network, now giving back to the community that helped launch his career.
