Meyer worked for Kurt Wolff Verlag, Werfel's publisher at this time, and was the head of the company during the period when Wolff served in the military during World War I. Rudolf Werfel, Franz's father, sometimes corresponded with Meyer about publishing matters on behalf of his son while Franz Werfel was serving in the military during the war and until the end of 1919.
