Record producerAssociated acts Grateful Dead David Hardy Lemieux (November 8, 1970) is an audio and film archivist. He has been working as the Grateful Dead's audiovisual archivist and CD/DVD producer since September, 1999. He was put in charge of the Grateful Dead's vault after the August, 1999 passing of original Grateful Dead tape archivist Dick Latvala. With his producing partner, and long-time Grateful Dead studio engineer, Jeffrey Norman, Lemieux has produced scores of Grateful Dead CD and DVD releases since 2000. He has also produced several CD releases by Jerry Garcia.
Lemieux hosts a daily radio show on Sirius Satellite Radio (Channel 32) and XM Satellite Radio (Channel 23), Today in Grateful Dead History, in which he selects a segment of music from that day in the Grateful Dead's history and explains its historical context and other information relating to the selection.
In addition to his work with the Grateful Dead, Lemieux is also the editor of the Association of Moving Image Archivists' quarterly Newsletter.
Lemieux is on the Board of Directors of the Victoria Film Festival in Victoria, British Columbia, Canada, where he has been on the programming committee since 2003, and for which he writes film notes for the festival's official programme guide.
David Lemieux is originally from Ottawa, Ontario, Canada, and was educated at Carleton University in Ottawa (BA in history), Concordia University in Montreal (BFA in film studies) and the University of East Anglia in Norwich, UK (MA in film archiving). He is a Grammy, Juno, and Gemini Award voting member. David Lemieux is a great great grandson of Arthur Sturgis Hardy former Premier of Ontario.
