Rich Hollenberg’s Summary

I have accumulated a vast array of experiences in my 12+ years in front of the camera. I am as comfortable in a studio setting reading off a TelePrompter as I am in the field, reporting extemporaneously. I have a strong affinity for the art of the on-camera interview, and enjoy "behind-the-scenes" producing, writing, and editing, too. My career path was rooted in Sports, but has recently moved into Electronic Retail, as well. I have been lucky enough to keep a foot in both worlds. More than anything else, I am passionate about the storytelling aspect TV provides.

Rich Hollenberg’s Specialties:

Hosting live TV programming with/without TelePrompter; Field reporting; Interviewing; In-Arena announcing; Producing/Writing; Master of Ceremonies for numerous chairty functions.
