  Sean McManus
  
  CBS Sports
  
  Sean McManus was named Chairman, CBS Sports, in February 2011 overseeing all sports properties across all CBS Sports operations. He also serves as Executive Producer of THE NFL ON CBS.
  
  McManus served concurrently as President, CBS News and Sports for more than five years prior to being named Chairman. He was named President, CBS Sports, in November 1996 and President, CBS News, in October 2005 and is only the second person to hold both Division titles simultaneously; Roone Arledge held both at ABC from 1977-86.
  
  As president of CBS Sports, McManus led the CBS Corporation’s efforts in acquiring broadcast rights to the National Football League in January 1998, and in November 2004 re-negotiated the contract to retain the rights for CBS until 2011. In May 2009, McManus re-negotiated the NFL contract to retain the rights for CBS through the 2013-14 season and included CBS broadcasting Super Bowl XLVII in New Orleans in 2013. And in December 2011, McManus re-negotiated a nine-year deal to retain the NFL broadcast rights through the 2022 season. And in March 2021, he re-negotiated a new 11-year multi-platform rights agreement with the NFL through the 2033 season. In February 2014, McManus negotiated the rights for the NFL’s new Thursday Night Football package for the 2014 season. In January 2015, he again successfully negotiated a deal to continue the partnership for 2015, and again in February 2016 they renewed the partnership for 2016 and 2017. In February 2021, McManus oversaw the production of Super Bowl LV from Tampa during an unprecedented season affected by the Covid-19 pandemic. In February 2019, McManus oversaw the year-long Corporation-wide coverage of Super Bowl LIII from Atlanta. And in February 2016, he also oversaw Corporation-wide coverage of Super Bowl 50, featuring shows from nine CBS divisions with week-long, around-the-clock coverage from San Francisco and the Bay Area across multiple platforms including broadcast, cable and premium television, radio and digital leading up to exclusive game coverage of Super Bowl 50. Much of the coverage originated from Super Bowl City at the foot of Market Street in San Francisco, which featured multiple sets, a football field and fan activation zone. On February 7, 2016, CBS Sports’ broadcast of Super Bowl 50 between Denver and Carolina was watched in all-or-part by a record 167 million viewers, making it the most-watched single broadcast in television history by that measure at the time. McManus also oversaw the launch of a comprehensive redesign of CBS Sports’ iconic logo that implemented a new on-air graphics look for CBS Sports and CBS Sports Network which debuted as part of the Network’s Super Bowl Week programming and Super Bowl 50. In February 2013, he also oversaw unprecedented Super Bowl coverage when the Network established CBS SUPER BOWL PARK at Jackson Square as New Orleans’ home to shows from nine CBS divisions across multiple platforms leading up to Super Bowl XLVII. On February 7, 2010, CBS Sports’ broadcast of Super Bowl XLIV between New Orleans and Indianapolis was watched by 106.5 million viewers making it the most-watched program in television history at the time.
  
  In addition, McManus serves as executive producer for the acclaimed show INSIDE THE NFL on Paramount+ this year after 13 years on SHOWTIME. In its first year on SHOWTIME in 2008, INSIDE THE NFL won the Sports Emmy® Award for Outstanding Studio Show-Weekly, and did so again for 2012. McManus is a 20-time Emmy Award-winner. In December 2016, he was inducted into the Sports Broadcasting Hall of Fame. In 2015 he was named to The Hollywood Reporter’s list of The 35 Most Powerful People in Media and also was honored with the Legacy Award at the Cynopsis Sports Media Awards. And in 2010, McManus was inducted into the Broadcasting & Cable Hall of Fame.
  
  During McManus' more than 24 years as Chairman and President of the Division, CBS Sports has become the year-round leader in network sports television. In November 1999, he led CBS to an unprecedented landmark agreement with the NCAA which extended the exclusive over-the-air broadcast rights, as well as rights to the Internet, marketing and corporate sponsorship, merchandising, licensing, cable television, radio, satellite, digital and home video to the NCAA Division I Men's Basketball Championship until 2014. The 11-year pact was the most comprehensive sports agreement in history. In April 2010, he negotiated a landmark deal, partnering with Turner Broadcasting, to extend the rights to the NCAA Division I Men’s Basketball Championship through 2024. The $10.8 billion deal is the most extensive and far-reaching network-cable sports deal ever created. And in April 2016, McManus, in partnership with Turner Broadcasting, negotiated with the NCAA an eight-year extension of its multimedia rights agreement for the NCAA Division I Men’s Basketball Championship through 2032.
  
  In August 2022, McManus secured a seven-year agreement with the Big Ten for football and basketball with CBS carrying the football championship games in 2024 and 2028. Additionally in August 2022, McManus reached an historic six-year agreement with the UEFA Champions League to extend its broadcast rights through the 2029-30 season. In March 2020, McManus reached a new multi-year agreement with the PGA TOUR to extend its broadcast rights through 2030 and to remain the TOUR’s dominant broadcast partner. He also extended broadcast rights to the PGA Championship in October 2018 with an historic, 11-year comprehensive multi-media rights agreement with the PGA of America and ESPN to provide live wall-to-wall, full field, 72-hole coverage of the PGA Championship beginning in 2020. Additionally, beginning in 2020, McManus secured a brand new deal with UEFA Champions League, making CBS Sports the home for the most prestigious club soccer tournament in the world. McManus negotiated CBS' agreement with the United States Tennis Association to broadcast the U.S. Open through 2014, extended the agreement with the Big Ten to broadcast the conference's basketball games through the 2016-17, and further extended the deal through the 2022-23 season, and extended the Southeastern Conference (SEC) football and basketball agreements in another landmark deal, a 15-year extension, through the 2023-24 season. In May 2012, McManus oversaw the acquisition of broadcast rights for men’s college basketball games from the Atlantic Coast Conference (ACC), Big 12 and Pac-12 Conferences through an agreement with ESPN.
  
  McManus brought Tony Romo to CBS Sports to be the lead NFL ON CBS analyst in April 2017 right from the field, something that had never been done. Together with Jim Nantz, this NFL ON CBS announce team is considered the best in the industry and one of the best in history. In February 2020, McManus signed Romo to an unprecedented 10-year extension to remain at CBS until 2031.
  
  Complementing the on-air talent roster that had already included Jim Nantz, John McEnroe, Billy Packer and Ken Venturi, McManus was responsible for adding Greg Gumbel, James Brown, Dick Enberg, Verne Lundquist, Phil Simms, Dan Dierdorf, Lesley Visser, Boomer Esiason, Shannon Sharpe, Dan Marino, Nick Faldo, Bill Cowher, Greg Anthony, Clark Kellogg, Jim Rome, Bart Scott, Tony Gonzalez, Rick Neuheisel, Brad Nessler, Nate Burleson and Romo to CBS Sports' announcer lineup.
  
  In addition, McManus led CBS's efforts in securing a partnership with SportsLine USA that created CBS SportsLine, now known as CBSSports.com, one of the most successful sports Internet sites. In January 2008, McManus began overseeing CSTV’s cable and digital businesses initiating its re-branding as CBS COLLEGE SPORTS NETWORK, and further re-branding in April 2011 as CBS SPORTS NETWORK. In 2014, under his leadership, the network announced the first-ever, nationally-televised, all-female, weekly, hour-long, primetime sports show, WE NEED TO TALK on CBS Sports Network. In February 2018, McManus was instrumental in the launch of CBS SPORTS HQ, a 24-hour streaming sports news digital network in collaboration between CBS Sports and CBS Interactive that allows sports fans to watch live, full-day, anchored coverage of the day’s top sports storylines.
  
  As president of CBS News, McManus restructured and re-tooled the Division, both in front of and behind the camera. Most notable on the on-air side was the April 2006 announcement that Katie Couric would join CBS News as the new anchor and managing editor of the CBS EVENING NEWS and a correspondent for 60 MINUTES. In December 2010, McManus also oversaw a major shift at THE EARLY SHOW, naming Erica Hill and Chris Wragge co-anchors, Jeff Glor news anchor and Marysol Castro, weather anchor. Also during his tenure, a new state-of-the-art newsroom at CBS News headquarters in New York and EVENING NEWS set were built, and a new primary control room was unveiled in July 2008.
  
  McManus aggressively worked to build a strong corps of reporters, as well as developed the next generation of CBS News correspondents. He designated and assigned key beats including Chief Foreign Affairs Correspondent Lara Logan, Chief White House correspondent Chip Reid, Chief Investigative Correspondent Armen Keteyian, and National Correspondent Byron Pitts. McManus also added strong veteran correspondents to round out the group, including Jeff Greenfield and Dean Reynolds. He announced that CNN’s Anderson Cooper would contribute several stories to 60 MINUTES and CNN’s Dr. Sanjay Gupta would contribute to the CBS EVENING NEWS.
  
  McManus also led the Division through tragedy, when a car bomb attack in Baghdad on Memorial Day 2006 killed cameraman Paul Douglas and soundman James Brolan and critically injured correspondent Kimberly Dozier. In August 2009, McManus once again guided the Division through a difficult time, as correspondent Cami McCormick was seriously injured by an improvised exploding device (IED) in Afghanistan, in a blast that killed an American serviceman, Army Spc. Abraham Sherrod Wheeler III.
  
  Under McManus, CBS News won more major awards than any other network’s news division, including one of electronic journalism’s most prestigious honors for an innovative, division-wide news initiative that he personally conceived and oversaw. “CBS REPORTS: Children of the Recession,” a months-long series of multi-platform reports on the effects of the dramatic economic downturn on America’s youth, won the coveted Alfred I. duPont-Columbia University award in January 2010. “Children of the Recession” also represented McManus’ reincarnation after four decades of the prestigious CBS REPORTS moniker, previously used for documentaries, as a Division-wide effort to offer comprehensive coverage of an issue across platforms and broadcasts. All told, the CBS News Division under McManus won three DuPont Awards, 19 Emmy Awards, four Peabody Awards and 29 RTDNA/Edward R. Murrow Awards.
  
  Prior to his CBS Sports tenure, he was Senior Vice President of U.S. Television Sales and Programming for Trans World International, the television division of International Management Group, the world’s largest sports marketing firm (1987-96).
  
  Before that, McManus was Vice President, Program Planning and Development at NBC Sports (1982-87), becoming the youngest vice president in the history of the network at the age of 27. He was responsible for all programming and was instrumental in the rights negotiations for the Olympics, the NFL, Wimbledon, the Breeders' Cup, the Orange Bowl, auto racing and NCAA college basketball. McManus joined NBC Sports in 1979 as an associate producer assigned to the NFL, Wimbledon, the PGA TOUR, "Sportsworld," auto racing and the Tour de France.
  
  McManus began his career in 1977 at ABC Sports as a production assistant and associate producer.
  
  McManus is the son of the late legendary sports broadcaster Jim McKay. He was graduated cum laude from Duke University in 1977 with a degree in English and History.

  CBS Sports
  
  David Berson was named President, CBS Sports, in June 2013. He joined CBS Sports in January 2011 as Executive Vice President, CBS Sports, and President, CBS Sports Network, after 16 years at ESPN, where he started as an intern during college.
  
  Berson oversees all aspects of CBS Sports across broadcast, cable, digital and streaming. Along with CBS Sports Chairman Sean McManus, he manages the relationships with all of CBS Sports’ partners, including the NFL, the Masters, PGA TOUR, PGA of America, NCAA, UEFA, Southeastern Conference and Big Ten Conference.
  
  Under Berson’s leadership, CBS Sports has more closely aligned and integrated all of its sports assets, including the CBS broadcast network, Paramount Global’s streaming service Paramount+, CBS Sports Network, CBSSports.com and all its digital sports properties. Sports continues to be a primary driver for Paramount Global’s linear and digital success.
  
  During Berson’s tenure at CBS Sports, he has been an integral part of all the Network’s rights acquisition negotiations, with the division successfully signing rights agreements with many marquee partners. Berson has helped spearhead four rights agreements with the NFL, including two for the Sunday AFC package and two for Thursday Night Football. Most recently, in March 2021, Paramount Global reached an 11-year multi-platform rights agreement with the NFL, extending CBS’ longstanding relationship with the league through the 2033 season. The historic deal keeps CBS the home of the AFC, while securing expanded and flexible distribution rights for Paramount+, as well as a vast array of rights across Paramount Global networks, properties and platforms. Berson conceived the wildly successful and Emmy award-winning NFL Wild Card Game on Nickelodeon, produced by CBS Sports, which debuted in 2021. The special slime-filled kids and family presentation, which aired alongside CBS Sports’ broadcast, is cultivating a new generation of fans and spurred the creation of NFL Slimetime, a weekly series on Nickelodeon.
  
  Berson has been instrumental in numerous long-term golf deals for CBS, including two separate nine-year PGA TOUR rights agreements (2013-2021 and 2022-2030), continuing CBS Sports’ position as the leading broadcast partner of the PGA TOUR, plus an historic 11-year deal with the PGA of America for CBS's carriage of the PGA Championship through 2030.
  
  Berson also helps lead CBS Sports’ streaming business on Paramount+, which includes the acquisition of more than 10 new soccer properties, highlighted in 2020 by making CBS Sports the home of the UEFA Champions League, the most prestigious club soccer tournament in the world, a deal that was later extended through the 2029-30 season. In addition to UEFA, CBS Sports’ soccer portfolio boasts many of the sport’s top competitions, including Serie A, CONCACAF World Cup Men’s and Women’s qualifiers, NWSL and the Women’s Super League.
  
  Berson helped secure the multimedia rights for the NCAA Division I Men’s Basketball Championship (March Madness) for CBS, in conjunction with Turner Broadcasting, through 2032. In 2022, Berson and CBS also negotiated a seven-year agreement with the Big Ten for football and basketball rights through 2029-30. Additionally, college sports rights extensions have been reached for the Army-Navy game through 2028, among many others.
  
  Berson has overseen numerous high-profile CBS Sports on-air talent acquisitions, including Tony Romo, Nate Burleson, Jay Wright, Kate Abdo, Charles Davis, Dottie Pepper, Amanda Renner, Thierry Henry and Colt Knost. In recent years, Berson, along with McManus, has also extended the deals of longtime CBS Sports voices Jim Nantz, Ian Eagle, James Brown, Bill Cowher, Phil Simms, Bill Raftery, Nick Faldo, Tracy Wolfson and Gary Danielson.
  
  Since Berson joined CBS Sports, CBS Sports Network has achieved record business results. Enhancements to the cable network during his tenure include a total rebrand of the service, numerous rights agreements to bring aboard more leagues/conferences and live events than ever before, plus original programming, including the critically acclaimed first-ever, nationally-televised, all-female primetime sports show, WE NEED TO TALK.
  
  Prior to joining CBS Sports, Berson co-ran ESPN's programming department and was responsible for programming strategy, scheduling, development and driving audience consumption for all of ESPN's domestic television networks and digital video media platforms. Berson led the programming group through a dynamic period at ESPN and ABC, including the launch of numerous additional networks and multimedia products. Beginning in 2001 when he took over responsibility for programming scheduling and strategy, ESPN networks set record audience levels each year during his tenure and, in an era of rapid media industry change and proliferation of consumer entertainment options, ESPN ratings grew 34 percent over that time.
  
  The Sports Business Journal annually includes Berson on its list of the Most Influential People in Sports Business. In January 2006, The Sporting News listed Berson, then 33, on its annual list of "Young & Powerful." In 2007, 2008 and 2009, he was selected as a Sports Business Journal "Forty Under 40" recipient and named as a "Forty Under 40 Hall of Famer." In 2007 and 2008, he was listed on BusinessWeek's "The Power 100" ranking of the 100 most powerful people in sports. In 2019, for his philanthropic and professional work, Berson was honored by the UJA-Federation of New York at its Sports for Youth Luncheon. He is a ten-time Emmy Award-winner.
  
  Berson is a graduate of the University of Michigan and serves on the University’s Sports Management Advisory Board.

Most recently, in March 2021, Paramount Global reached an 11-year multi-platform rights agreement with the NFL, extending CBS’ longstanding relationship with the league through the 2033 season. The historic deal keeps CBS the home of the AFC, while securing expanded and flexible distribution rights for Paramount+, as well as a vast array of rights across Paramount Global networks, properties and platforms. Berson conceived the wildly successful and Emmy award-winning NFL Wild Card Game on Nickelodeon, produced by CBS Sports, which debuted in 2021. The special slime-filled kids and family presentation, which aired alongside CBS Sports’ broadcast, is cultivating a new generation of fans and spurred the creation of NFL Slimetime, a weekly series on Nickelodeon.
  
  Berson has been instrumental in numerous long-term golf deals for CBS, including two separate nine-year PGA TOUR rights agreements (2013-2021 and 2022-2030), continuing CBS Sports’ position as the leading broadcast partner of the PGA TOUR, plus an historic 11-year deal with the PGA of America for CBS's carriage of the PGA Championship through 2030.
  
  Berson also helps lead CBS Sports’ streaming business on Paramount+, which includes the acquisition of more than 10 new soccer properties, highlighted in 2020 by making CBS Sports the home of the UEFA Champions League, the most prestigious club soccer tournament in the world, a deal that was later extended through the 2029-30 season. In addition to UEFA, CBS Sports’ soccer portfolio boasts many of the sport’s top competitions, including Serie A, CONCACAF World Cup Men’s and Women’s qualifiers, NWSL and the Women’s Super League.
  
  Berson helped secure the multimedia rights for the NCAA Division I Men’s Basketball Championship (March Madness) for CBS, in conjunction with Turner Broadcasting, through 2032. In 2022, Berson and CBS also negotiated a seven-year agreement with the Big Ten for football and basketball rights through 2029-30. Additionally, college sports rights extensions have been reached for the Army-Navy game through 2028, among many others.
  
  Berson has overseen numerous high-profile CBS Sports on-air talent acquisitions, including Tony Romo, Nate Burleson, Jay Wright, Kate Abdo, Charles Davis, Dottie Pepper, Amanda Renner, Thierry Henry and Colt Knost. In recent years, Berson, along with McManus, has also extended the deals of longtime CBS Sports voices Jim Nantz, Ian Eagle, James Brown, Bill Cowher, Phil Simms, Bill Raftery, Nick Faldo, Tracy Wolfson and Gary Danielson.
  
  Since Berson joined CBS Sports, CBS Sports Network has achieved record business results. Enhancements to the cable network during his tenure include a total rebrand of the service, numerous rights agreements to bring aboard more leagues/conferences and live events than ever before, plus original programming, including the critically acclaimed first-ever, nationally-televised, all-female primetime sports show, WE NEED TO TALK.
  
  Prior to joining CBS Sports, Berson co-ran ESPN's programming department and was responsible for programming strategy, scheduling, development and driving audience consumption for all of ESPN's domestic television networks and digital video media platforms. Berson led the programming group through a dynamic period at ESPN and ABC, including the launch of numerous additional networks and multimedia products. Beginning in 2001 when he took over responsibility for programming scheduling and strategy, ESPN networks set record audience levels each year during his tenure and, in an era of rapid media industry change and proliferation of consumer entertainment options, ESPN ratings grew 34 percent over that time.
  
  The Sports Business Journal annually includes Berson on its list of the Most Influential People in Sports Business. In January 2006, The Sporting News listed Berson, then 33, on its annual list of "Young & Powerful." In 2007, 2008 and 2009, he was selected as a Sports Business Journal "Forty Under 40" recipient and named as a "Forty Under 40 Hall of Famer." In 2007 and 2008, he was listed on BusinessWeek's "The Power 100" ranking of the 100 most powerful people in sports. In 2019, for his philanthropic and professional work, Berson was honored by the UJA-Federation of New York at its Sports for Youth Luncheon. He is a ten-time Emmy Award-winner.
  
  Berson is a graduate of the University of Michigan and serves on the University’s Sports Management Advisory Board.

  Bill Owens was named executive producer of 60 MINUTES in February of 2019. He assumed the role of heading America’s #1 news program after 12 years of supervising the broadcast’s content in two senior positions. First as senior producer and then the executive editor, Owens had editorial and production input in the creation of nearly a thousand 60 MINUTES segments from conception through screening and broadcast. Before taking his management role at the news magazine, the 30-year veteran of CBS News excelled at every level of responsibility while covering the gamut of international and domestic news events.
  
  Owens was named to Hollywood Reporter’s 35 Most Powerful Media Leaders in April 2019.
  
  In 2012, he co-executive produced and launched “60 Minutes Sports,” a monthly sports edition of 60 MINUTES that ran five seasons on SHOWTIME. Owens also launched 60MinutesOvertime, the first website programmed entirely with originally produced 60 MINUTES content, and has supervised its staff and production since its debut in 2010.
  
  Owens joined 60 MINUTES’ management staff as senior broadcast producer in 2007 from the CBS EVENING NEWS, where he held the same title. He first joined 60 MINUTES in 2003 and worked with Scott Pelley producing segments that included coverage of Hurricane Katrina, the genocide in Sudan, climate change and a memorable profile of controversial NFL linebacker Bill Romanowski.
  
  Before that, the Pelley-Owens team produced segments for “60 Minutes II,” highlighted by an hour-long interview with President George W. Bush on the first anniversary of the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks. The team also covered the American invasion of Iraq as a unilateral correspondent-producer team on the ground, contributing news-making reports to all CBS News programs.
  
  In the late 1990s, Owens was the CBS News senior White House producer. Working with Pelley, Bill Plante and Rita Braver, he covered the impeachment of President Bill Clinton and broke major stories in the scandal that ran up to the historic event, in addition to many other Washington stories. Owens was the anchor producer for Paula Zahn and Harry Smith when they anchored CBS THIS MORNING. He was the broadcast’s coordinating producer in New York before that.
  
  In his first jobs for CBS, Owens served as a national desk assignment editor, field producer and desk assistant for CBS News and for WCBS-TV, the CBS-owned station in New York.
  
  Owens began his journalism career in 1988 as a page for CBS News working at the national political conventions in Atlanta and New Orleans.
  
  In addition to the many awards garnered by the 60 MINUTES stories he has shaped and supervised, Owens has received an Emmy Award and an IRE Award and contributed to a RTNDA Edward R. Murrow Overall Excellence Award. Towson University, Owens’ alma mater, awarded him an Honorary Doctorate of Humane Letters in May 2012.
  
  Owens is from Oyster Bay, N.Y. He was graduated from Towson in 1988 with a Bachelor of Science degree in mass communications. He lives in Connecticut with his wife and two children.

In that role, she created 48 HOURS: “Live to Tell,” a short-run series that features first-person accounts of people who have survived horrific events. “Live to Tell” has earned awards for documenting the challenges facing a victim of sex trafficking and the struggle of a survivor of the 2016 Brussels terror attack.
  
  Additionally, Tygard has been an integral producer in many of CBS News’ primetime specials, including the upcoming “Meghan and Harry Plus One” and the George Foster Peabody-nominated “39 Days,” a documentary about the student activist movement that followed the school shooting in Parkland, Fla. She was co-executive producer of the “The Gayle King Interview with R. Kelly,” and was key in the specials “Dan Rather: A Reporter Remembers” and “Flashpoint,” about the roadside attack in Iraq that killed CBS News cameraman Paul Douglas and soundman James Brolan.
  
  Tygard’s work has been recognized with five Emmys, three Alliance for Women in Media Gracie Awards, the Sigma Delta Chi Award, Silver Gavel, Alfred I. duPont-Columbia University Award and the George Foster Peabody Award.
  
  Tygard began her CBS News career as a writer for anchors Bob Schieffer and Morton Dean at the CBS EVENING NEWS weekend editions. She also worked at CBS THIS MORNING as a writer, copy editor, line producer and anchor producer. During her career, Tygard has covered a wide range of economic, political and international stories for CBS News such as the Moscow Summit, unrest in Cuba, Japan’s post-war reckoning, political conventions and the inaugurations of three presidents.
  
  She joined 48 HOURS in 1989 as a producer. She left for a brief stint at ABC News and later returned to 48 HOURS.
  
  Throughout her career, Tygard has focused on stories that examine the fairness of the judicial system, and has produced several editions of 48 HOURS centered on cases of the wrongfully accused.
  
  In 2018 she was part of the team behind “Defending DJ,” a report on an unarmed African-American college student shot to death by police, and the misleading narrative created in the aftermath. In 2016 she led a team that produced “Blaming Melissa,” a 48 HOURS report that uncovered new evidence and cast substantial doubt on the criminal confession of a young woman questioned by police for nine hours.
  
  Tygard also spent eight years working with the team behind a series of reports on Ryan Ferguson, a Missouri man wrongfully convicted of murder, who later credited the broadcast with helping him gain his freedom. And in 2012, Tygard was the senior producer of “Grave Injustice,” an award-winning 48 HOURS about a man deprived of compensation by the State of Texas after spending 18 years in prison for a crime he didn’t commit.
  
  Tygard’s first production for 48 HOURS in 1989, “Women Doing Time,” about women in the criminal justice system, earned an Emmy Award.
  
  Tygard began her broadcasting career at WNEW-TV in New York, rising to broadcast producer for the station’s 10 PM newscast.

  September 2021
  
  Susan Zirinsky is the president of See It Now Studios, where she oversees the development, production and distribution of original documentaries and docuseries for Paramount+, CBS, ViacomCBS networks and third-party platforms.
  
  One of the first projects developed by See It Now Studios is THE 26^th STREET GARAGE: THE FBI’S UNTOLD STORY OF 9/11 for Paramount+, which is narrated by Tom Selleck and reveals how in the desperate moments after the 9/11 attacks the FBI was forced to evacuate its New York headquarters, and with no resources transformed a greasy automotive garage into a new command center. Within hours of the attacks, from the 26^th Street garage, agents launched the FBI’s most complex and important investigation in U.S. history. In the days that followed, they rewrote the rules for counter-terrorism operations forever. THE 26^thSTREET GARAGE takes viewers inside this story of ingenuity, teamwork and determination through exclusive interviews with the FBI agents and officials who were there.
  
  Also from See It Now Studios is RACE AGAINST TIME: THE CIA AND 9/11 for the CBS Television Network and streaming on Paramount+. RACE AGAINST TIME is the gripping account of one of the darkest days in American history, as told from inside the nation’s premier spy agency. Featuring top officials and elite operatives from inside the CIA, the documentary brings the dramatic, exclusive and haunting story of the efforts to warn the nation of a potential catastrophic attack orchestrated by Osama Bin Laden. Sept. 11, 2001 marked the greatest failure in the history of the CIA, but also sparked what became its greatest success – the elimination of the world’s most-wanted terrorist. For these CIA insiders, it was a pursuit that began years before 9/11 and ended long after.
  
  See It Now Studios will also create spinoffs of CBS News brands, building on the reporting and resources of CBS News, and produce “insta-docs” in the wake of monumental current events in collaboration with Neeraj Khemlani and Wendy McMahon, presidents and co-heads of CBS News and Stations.
  
  Prior to being named president of the See It Now Studios, Zirinsky spent two years as president and senior executive producer of CBS News, becoming the first woman to hold that job in the history of the Network.
  
  She began her career in the CBS News Washington bureau two weeks after the Watergate break-in, and during her career has earned virtually every major broadcast journalism award and accolade.
  
  Over four decades with CBS News, she has produced a wide variety of award-winning documentaries and programs, and has covered a range of historic stories, from the Gulf War to the student uprising in Tiananmen Square, from the White House for 10 years to the 9/11 attacks, and from the Paris terrorist attacks to the mass shooting at a Parkland, Fla. School.
  
  As president of CBS News, Zirinsky oversaw an overhaul of the news division, including launching the CBS EVENING NEWS WITH NORAH O’DONNELL and moving the broadcast to Washington, D.C., where it is the only broadcast network nightly newscast to be based in the nation’s capital. In 2019 she re-imagined the “CBS This Morning” anchor team with co-hosts Gayle King, Anthony Mason and Tony Dokoupil and worked to grow CBS News’ multiplatform presence. She also named new executive leadership and several new executive producers of several flagship programs, including 60 MINUTES, “CBS This Morning” (now CBS MORNINGS), CBS EVENING NEWS, 48 HOURS, and a newly created CBS NEWS SPECIAL EVENTS unit.
  
  Zirinsky has extensive experience leading teams of investigative journalists, building and developing new non-fiction programs; creating innovative ways to report news; and mentoring and guiding the careers of some of the industry’s brightest journalists.
  
  Prior to becoming president and senior executive producer of CBS News, Zirinsky was the senior executive producer of the award-winning 48 HOURS and was responsible for numerous CBS News breaking news specials. She was also the senior executive producer of 48 HOURS: NCIS and the senior executive producer of the CBS primetime series WHISTLEBLOWER.
  
  A prolific producer on a variety of issues and subjects, her work has been lauded by critics and honored by her peers with journalism’s top honors, including Emmys, the Alfred I. duPont-Columbia University Award and the George Foster Peabody Award.
  
  She has executive produced many highly praised and compelling news documentaries, including “The Spymasters – CIA in the Crosshairs” for SHOWTIME in 2015, co-produced with filmmakers Gideon and Jules Naudet and Chris Whipple, featuring, for the first time, interviews with all 12 living former and current heads of the CIA, appearing in one program. In 2004, also for SHOWTIME, she executive produced “Three Days in September,” which told the story of a school taken hostage in Beslan, Russia. Narrated by Julia Roberts, that documentary was also featured in the Tribeca Film Festival. In addition, in 2002, she co-executive produced with the Naudets and firefighter James Hanlon “9/11,” the most comprehensive account of the tragedy. Hosted by Robert De Niro, more than 39 million people watched this Peabody and Emmy Award-winning documentary.
  
  Zirinsky executive produced the 2013 CBS News documentary series “Brooklyn DA,” a candid look behind the scenes at investigators pursuing crime and punishment.
  
  Additionally, Zirinsky is a successful producer of CBS breaking news specials. Those projects include the March 2018 documentary “39 Days,” which followed the group of students who banded together after the Parkland, Fla mass shooting, co-executive produced by Judy Tygard. She has also produced breaking news specials on the royal wedding in 2018; the inauguration of President Donald Trump in 2017; the Dallas police shootings in 2016; the terrorist attacks in Paris in 2015; the Boston Marathon bombings in 2013; the mass shooting in an Aurora, Co. theater in 2012; and the Sandy Hook Elementary school shooting also in 2012. She’s produced specials following the deaths of Mary Tyler Moore in 2017, Muhammad Ali in 2016 and Nelson Mandela in 2013. In 2009 Zirinsky executive produced “Ted Kennedy: The Last Brother” and “That’s the Way It Was: Remembering Walter Cronkite.”
  
  She also produced the documentary series “The Injustice Files” for ID Discovery and the CBS News documentaries “The Lord’s Bootcamp,” “In God’s Name” and “Flashpoint.” She executive produced “David Letterman: A Life on Television” in 2015; “Vanity Fair’s Hollywood” in 2013; “The Grammys Will Go On: A Death in the Family,” a 2013 documentary about the GRAMMYs and the night Whitney Houston died; and “Fashion’s Night Out” with Vogue editor Anna Wintour in 2010.
  
  Zirinsky got her start at CBS News at a critical time in the nation’s history. Beginning as a part-time desk assistant in the CBS Washington Bureau in 1972 while attending college at American University, she was surrounded by the legendary CBS News reporting team led by Walter Cronkite that dominated Watergate coverage on television. In October 1973, she was alone in the Washington newsroom one night when word broke that President Richard Nixon had fired his attorney general, the so-called “Saturday Night Massacre.” She found herself at the center of a huge story.
  
  Continually growing within the division, Zirinsky became an associate producer for “The CBS Morning News” and then a producer on “The CBS Evening News with Walter Cronkite.” In that role, she became a White House producer and spent a decade covering the Jimmy Carter and Ronald Reagan presidencies. She traveled with them throughout the world where she produced reports with Lesley Stahl, Ed Bradley, Bob Simon, Bob Schieffer and Bill Plante for various broadcasts. She was promoted in 1987 to senior producer for the “CBS Evening News with Dan Rather” in Washington.
  
  In 1984, while covering the Democratic National Convention, Academy Award-winning producer James L. Brooks interviewed her about her job. As a result, while still working at CBS News, Zirinsky became the technical advisor/associate producer for Brooks’ film “Broadcast News,” starring Holly Hunter as a Washington network news producer.
  
  In 1989 Zirinsky was assigned to Beijing, China to run CBS News coverage of what was to be the first visit of a Russian President to China in 30 years. What it became was the student uprising in Tiananmen Square. CBS News broadcast the demonstrations and violence live from Beijing exclusively for several days until the Chinese government ordered the satellite transmitter shutdown. She was then sent to Panama as producer-in-charge as the U.S. invasion of that country occurred. A few months later she was dispatched to cover Operation Desert Storm, which was launched by the U.S. military and its allies following Iraq’s invasion of Kuwait. Ever the fierce competitor, she maneuvered the first network team to arrive with the allied forces when they took Kuwait back from Iraqi soldiers.
  
  In 1990 she moved from Washington to New York as senior producer of the “CBS Evening News with Dan Rather” and became the senior broadcast producer. In 1992 she was director of CBS News political coverage, and then executive producer of CBS News “Campaign ‘96.” During that period, she was also CBS News’ senior producer at the 1992 Olympic Winter Games in Albertville, France, where she oversaw the CBS News and Sports news desk for the Network. She served as executive producer of the CBS News magazine “Eye to Eye with Connie Chung” in 1994.
  
  Zirinsky graduated cum laude from American University in Washington, D.C. The AU School of Communication honored her with the Dean’s Award in 2018.

In 2019 she re-imagined the “CBS This Morning” anchor team with co-hosts Gayle King, Anthony Mason and Tony Dokoupil and worked to grow CBS News’ multiplatform presence. She also named new executive leadership and several new executive producers of several flagship programs, including 60 MINUTES, “CBS This Morning” (now CBS MORNINGS), CBS EVENING NEWS, 48 HOURS, and a newly created CBS NEWS SPECIAL EVENTS unit.
  
  Zirinsky has extensive experience leading teams of investigative journalists, building and developing new non-fiction programs; creating innovative ways to report news; and mentoring and guiding the careers of some of the industry’s brightest journalists.
  
  Prior to becoming president and senior executive producer of CBS News, Zirinsky was the senior executive producer of the award-winning 48 HOURS and was responsible for numerous CBS News breaking news specials. She was also the senior executive producer of 48 HOURS: NCIS and the senior executive producer of the CBS primetime series WHISTLEBLOWER.
  
  A prolific producer on a variety of issues and subjects, her work has been lauded by critics and honored by her peers with journalism’s top honors, including Emmys, the Alfred I. duPont-Columbia University Award and the George Foster Peabody Award.
  
  She has executive produced many highly praised and compelling news documentaries, including “The Spymasters – CIA in the Crosshairs” for SHOWTIME in 2015, co-produced with filmmakers Gideon and Jules Naudet and Chris Whipple, featuring, for the first time, interviews with all 12 living former and current heads of the CIA, appearing in one program. In 2004, also for SHOWTIME, she executive produced “Three Days in September,” which told the story of a school taken hostage in Beslan, Russia. Narrated by Julia Roberts, that documentary was also featured in the Tribeca Film Festival. In addition, in 2002, she co-executive produced with the Naudets and firefighter James Hanlon “9/11,” the most comprehensive account of the tragedy. Hosted by Robert De Niro, more than 39 million people watched this Peabody and Emmy Award-winning documentary.
  
  Zirinsky executive produced the 2013 CBS News documentary series “Brooklyn DA,” a candid look behind the scenes at investigators pursuing crime and punishment.
  
  Additionally, Zirinsky is a successful producer of CBS breaking news specials. Those projects include the March 2018 documentary “39 Days,” which followed the group of students who banded together after the Parkland, Fla mass shooting, co-executive produced by Judy Tygard. She has also produced breaking news specials on the royal wedding in 2018; the inauguration of President Donald Trump in 2017; the Dallas police shootings in 2016; the terrorist attacks in Paris in 2015; the Boston Marathon bombings in 2013; the mass shooting in an Aurora, Co. theater in 2012; and the Sandy Hook Elementary school shooting also in 2012. She’s produced specials following the deaths of Mary Tyler Moore in 2017, Muhammad Ali in 2016 and Nelson Mandela in 2013. In 2009 Zirinsky executive produced “Ted Kennedy: The Last Brother” and “That’s the Way It Was: Remembering Walter Cronkite.”
  
  She also produced the documentary series “The Injustice Files” for ID Discovery and the CBS News documentaries “The Lord’s Bootcamp,” “In God’s Name” and “Flashpoint.” She executive produced “David Letterman: A Life on Television” in 2015; “Vanity Fair’s Hollywood” in 2013; “The Grammys Will Go On: A Death in the Family,” a 2013 documentary about the GRAMMYs and the night Whitney Houston died; and “Fashion’s Night Out” with Vogue editor Anna Wintour in 2010.
  
  Zirinsky got her start at CBS News at a critical time in the nation’s history. Beginning as a part-time desk assistant in the CBS Washington Bureau in 1972 while attending college at American University, she was surrounded by the legendary CBS News reporting team led by Walter Cronkite that dominated Watergate coverage on television. In October 1973, she was alone in the Washington newsroom one night when word broke that President Richard Nixon had fired his attorney general, the so-called “Saturday Night Massacre.” She found herself at the center of a huge story.
  
  Continually growing within the division, Zirinsky became an associate producer for “The CBS Morning News” and then a producer on “The CBS Evening News with Walter Cronkite.” In that role, she became a White House producer and spent a decade covering the Jimmy Carter and Ronald Reagan presidencies. She traveled with them throughout the world where she produced reports with Lesley Stahl, Ed Bradley, Bob Simon, Bob Schieffer and Bill Plante for various broadcasts. She was promoted in 1987 to senior producer for the “CBS Evening News with Dan Rather” in Washington.
  
  In 1984, while covering the Democratic National Convention, Academy Award-winning producer James L. Brooks interviewed her about her job. As a result, while still working at CBS News, Zirinsky became the technical advisor/associate producer for Brooks’ film “Broadcast News,” starring Holly Hunter as a Washington network news producer.
  
  In 1989 Zirinsky was assigned to Beijing, China to run CBS News coverage of what was to be the first visit of a Russian President to China in 30 years. What it became was the student uprising in Tiananmen Square. CBS News broadcast the demonstrations and violence live from Beijing exclusively for several days until the Chinese government ordered the satellite transmitter shutdown. She was then sent to Panama as producer-in-charge as the U.S. invasion of that country occurred. A few months later she was dispatched to cover Operation Desert Storm, which was launched by the U.S. military and its allies following Iraq’s invasion of Kuwait. Ever the fierce competitor, she maneuvered the first network team to arrive with the allied forces when they took Kuwait back from Iraqi soldiers.
  
  In 1990 she moved from Washington to New York as senior producer of the “CBS Evening News with Dan Rather” and became the senior broadcast producer. In 1992 she was director of CBS News political coverage, and then executive producer of CBS News “Campaign ‘96.” During that period, she was also CBS News’ senior producer at the 1992 Olympic Winter Games in Albertville, France, where she oversaw the CBS News and Sports news desk for the Network. She served as executive producer of the CBS News magazine “Eye to Eye with Connie Chung” in 1994.
  
  Zirinsky graduated cum laude from American University in Washington, D.C. The AU School of Communication honored her with the Dean’s Award in 2018.
