Michael P Weisman

Michael Weisman has reshaped sports television for the fast-paced modern age. He has won numerous awards and honors, including 24 Emmys for work at NBC and FOX. Michael began as an NBC page and later became executive producer of NBC Sports, the youngest in network sports history. Beyond his staggering sports resume—which comprises five Olympic Games, 12 World Series, and eight Super Bowls—Weisman stands apart for the breadth of his experiences. His work in late night television (CBS executive producer), daytime programming (Jane Pauley’s syndicated talk show), morning news on network (NBC’s “Today”), and most recently cable (executive-in-charge of MSNBC’s “Morning Joe”) makes him the only television producer of his kind. Michael attended Queens College from 1969 to 1971, graduating with a BA in communications arts and sciences. Michael and his best friend, wife Carol, have two chil- dren and three grandchildren, and reside in Manhattan.
