"THE STORY OF THE PAST IS TOO IMPORTANT TO BE EXCLUDED FROM THE NATIONAL CONVERSATION."

A Quick Overview of A Moment In Time for TV

Dan Roberts is the creator, host, and executive producer of the internationally acclaimed A Moment In Time on public radio. Now, following on the success of his popular radio series, he is bringing the same concept to television-creating special opportunities for programming directors and advertisers.

A Moment In Time is all interesting parts.

There are more than 2,500 of those parts already in the radio program inventory-many of them just waiting to become entertaining, informative, and very short TV programs. Roberts and his company, Dan Roberts Enterprises, Inc., have developed a pilot of the TV version and are now seeking an alliance with a major media company to produce an ongoing series for national TV market distribution.

Dan Roberts Enterprises, Inc.will supply research, script writing, talent, and the services of the Dan Roberts as on air host, resource commentator and executive producer. Using a more highly visible personality/celebrity as host is also an option if the inclusion of such a person helps sell the program to stations or networks.

With the program tightly scripted, studio production time kept to a minimum, and paid commercial time included, the potential profits to be shared with a media partner will be substantial. There is also the potential to cross-promote the TV series with other A Moment In Time productions such as the syndicated newspaper column, a lecture series featuring Dan Roberts, and the A Moment In Time radio show itself.
