Launer was born in Cleveland, Ohio, and brought up in the San Fernando valley.[1] He is the son of actor S. John Launer and is Jewish.[2][3] He attended California State University, Northridge,[1] where, after changing his major to Film,[4] he recognized his desire for a job writing and directing films. His first successful screenplay was Ruthless People (1986).

In May 2007, his film Tom's Nu Heaven,[5] which he produced, wrote and directed, won Best Picture at the Monaco Film Festival.
