About

The Broken Tail is an occasional blog mostly about the media business, journalism and the like.

I am a television news and documentary producer who lives in Denver with my wife and two children. I’m an avid, if not graceful, skier and distance (i.e. slow) runner. 

I am the Executive Producer of News and Documentaries at HDNet, the all high-definition cable / satellite network owned by Mark Cuban. I produce HDNet World Report, the network’s signature weekly news broadcast, which focuses on international affairs, in documentary style. I also oversee original documentaries, and NASA on HDNet, which, through the network’s exclusive relationship with NASA, broadcasts launches in HD.

Prior to joining HDNet in 2006, I spent 13 years at ABC News. Like many ABC vets, I believe I have PTSD from my time there.   My last position was Senior Producer for Special Events at Good Morning America. I produced historic broadcasts from around the world, from Vatican City to Jerusalem, from New Orleans to inside the White House.

While at ABC, I also produced for PrimeTime Live, 20/20, and This Week.

I’m a graduate of Vassar College (though I still have nightmares that I didn’t because I forgot to finish one paper … see a pattern here?); my opinions are my own and do not necessarily reflect those of HDNet, my wife, children or dog, Lucky.
