Thomas Overton

In the course of my broadcasting career I’ve done many projects. As a National spokesperson, on and off camera, I’ve been privileged to represent: Ford Motor Company Dristan Nasal Spray Di-Gel Antacid Philips Petroleum Kool-Aid Swift Premium Brown & Serve Volkswagen of America Levitz Furniture Miller Malt Liquors Sports Illustrated Sony Corp Motorola Roy Rogers Restaurants Planters Peanuts Harvey’s Bristol Cream Goodyear Tires Burrys Cookies Fleishman’s Margarine….and this is the short list. At the local and regional level I am heavily involved in retail automotive. I’m proud to say some of these clients have retained my services for 15 years or more and are multi-mark operators representing BMW, Mercedes, Genesis, Jaguar, Land Rover, Volkswagen, Ford, Cadillac, Hyundai, Mini, Chevrolet, Audi, Toyota and others. I’ve been a studio owner-operator for radio and TV production in New York City. My TV studio was the first Small format, broadcast capable facility and specialized in Animatic commercials for focus groups. My clients consisted of some of the largest agencies in the world. Among them: J Walter Thompson, Young & Rubicam, McCann Erickson, Ted Bates, Grey Advertising and others. Later I hooked up my facility with Hughes Television Network and produced TV spots for Pantry Pride Supermarkets, The National Enquirer and others. Prior to starting my free-lance career I spent nine years as a radio-TV personality covering the usual duties of music, news and sports in Houston, Texas before returning to my hometown, New York City. I’ve had a great time all along the way and when you hear someone say: ”If you love what you do for a living you never work a day in your life”, that’s me!
