Jon Entine Biography

Emmy-winning television producer, reporter and author Jon Entine has earned a reputation for venturing with integrity where many of his peers fear to tread. He first stepped into the national spotlight in 1989 when he wrote and produced the NBC documentary "Black Athletes: Fact and Fiction," selected the "Best Feature Film" at the International Sports Film Festival. A frank look at racial stereotyping and the impact of genetics in sports, it was widely praised for "taking risks in the name of truth-seeking" and "opening the door to enlightenment on a controversial subject."

Now, a decade after his documentary made headlines across the nation, Entine expands on this topic in his book, Taboo: Why Black Athletes Dominate Sports and Why We're Afraid to Talk About It. Jay T. Kearney, senior sports scientist with the United States Olympic Committee, praises Entine's work as "carefully researched and intellectually honest, with the potential to stimulate a far ranging and meaningful dialogue on race." Editor of the Journal of the African American Male, Gary Sailes, calls it "compelling, bold, informative, and enlightening."

At the podium, Jon Entine brings this hotly-debated issue to life in an engaging program offered exclusively through GTN. Using clips from his documentary and drawing on the latest genetic and sociological research, he persuasively argues that biology and ancestry are significant components of the disproportional emergence of world-class black athletes. He also explores the societal factors that have kept this issue publicly silenced, calling for a level of inquiry that celebrates human biodiversity rather than inflames suspicion of our differences. Sure to provoke thoughtful discussion, Entine's presentation is a candid, researched look at the genetic and social construct of race in America.

Also a respected international commentator on business ethics, Entine writes for such leading publications as the Sunday Times of London, The Chicago Tribune, The Toronto Globe and Mail, GQ, and Utne Reader, and authors a syndicated column, "The Ethical Edge," for Business Digest. Entine's National Press Club award-winning article, "Shattered Image: Is The Body Shop Too Good to Be True," has been widely praised as a "bombshell" and "watershed event" for its considered look at the hypocrisy of many companies with a "socially responsible" reputation. At the podium, he can also examine how companies tap into the hottest trends in marketing while maintaining their corporate integrity and a committed social vision.
