Meyer attended elementary and secondary school in Erlangen and the agricultural school in Fürth . He then worked as an agricultural officer in the Altmark and Westphalia . In August 1914, he reported at the beginning of the First World War as a volunteer in the Bavarian Army and was the Regiment Field Artillery 10. used. From 1917 to 1921 he worked again as an agricultural officer in Thuringia and Saxony. In 1921 he settled in Weinböhla as an independent farmer .

In 1924 Meyer belonged to the Völkisch Social Block , a substitute organization of the NSDAP, which was banned at the time. In 1925 he joined the NSDAP ( membership number 4815) in Weinböhla . In 1927 he became NSDAP Untergauleiter in East Saxony and at the same time Reich speaker of his party. In 1929 he was appointed district and local group leader of Dresden , two posts that he would hold until 1933. In 1929 he moved as a member of the NSDAP in the Saxon state parliament and on November 12, 1933 in the National Socialist Reichstag . In the last session of the Landtag until October 1933, he was First Vice-President of the Saxon Landtag. From March to November 1933, Cuno Meyer was honorary state commissioner for the Dresden-Bautzen district team.

Meyer was expelled from the party on June 6, 1936 by the Supreme Court of the NSDAP . The reason was various embezzlements. For example, he had his work as state commissioner with the district headquarters paid out of the party coffers. His mandate in the Reichstag was declared invalid on July 14, 1936. Paul Hinkler moved up for him . Then his track is lost. Presumably he went to the western zones after 1945 , where he finally died in Hamburg in 1981.
