Since founding Langer Equestrian Group in 1971, president and CEO Larry Langer has produced and managed multiple large-scale horse shows including the 1992 FEI World Cup Show Jumping Finals in Del Mar, Calif., and the 1996 Olympic Show Jumping events in Atlanta, Ga.
Langer started competing when he was 8. He earned a degree in mechanical engineering from Northrop University (Calif.) and a degree from California State University in business administration. He worked briefly as an engineer before deciding he wanted to be in the horse industry.
