After graduation from Art Center College of Design in Pasadena, Mead worked briefly as an auto stylist for Ford Motor Company.

In addition to his legendary work in motion pictures, Mead has executed many extraordinary projects, including a futuristic pavilion he designed for the Spaceship 2056 roller coaster in Japan, 750+ interior spaces in the Middle East, a yacht for Donald Trump and a custom interior for a privately owned Boeing 747.
