Hammock District was started in 2019 when founder and CEO Rich Traub decided he needed a company name to put at the end of things he made. This was an attempt to seem cool and professional.

The name made its debut on KCRW’s Radio Race competition which Rich did not win, but still thinks his radio story was pretty good.

Since then, Hammock District Productions, and its film and television wing, Hammock District Entertainment has become synonymous with a limited library of content hosted on youtube with very few views. And that’s just the way we like it.

HDP is always looking for new projects and collaborators, as we hope to expand in the areas of stage production and home video with Hammock District LIVE! and Hammock District Home Entertainment respectively. We are excited about partnering with up and coming content creators and social media influencers, as well as our soon to be launched visual art based arm Hammock District Textiles. We are actively looking for a literary agent or publisher to partner with in hopes of starting a Hammock District Press imprint. This is all very serious and real and should be taken thusly.

As for the name “Hammock District”, there’s no finer place to get business hammocks than the hammock complex down on third. We prefer Mary-Anne’s Hammocks because Mary-Anne gets in the hammock with you.
