Dave Sirulnick
American television producer (born 1964) From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Dave Sirulnick (born May 26, 1964) is an American television producer.
Sirulnick grew up in Teaneck, New Jersey,[1] where he attended Teaneck High School[2] and became involved with booking musicians such as LL Cool J, Run DMC, and Salt-N-Pepa at The Rink, a roller rink in nearby Bergenfield. He later attended Rutgers University. After graduating, he was hired as a news producer at CNN, like his father who was also a television producer.[3]
In 1987, he joined MTV, saying they "wanted someone to grow their news department. It's what I wanted my whole life: TV, music and news".[4] He eventually became the executive vice president for Multiplatform Production, News and Music at MTV.[1] Sirulnick's responsibilities included oversight of MTV's signature show, Total Request Live.[5] Half of MTV's programming had been within his job functions.[6] He was the chief architect of the MTV Video Music Awards.[7] In March 2015, he and others were dismissed from their positions at MTV by Viacom, the parent corporation.[8]
As of January 2019[update], Sirulnick is a partner at RadicalMedia.[9]
