John Davis Biography

As Emmy Award-winning producer, host, and creator of "MotorWeek," television's original and most popular automotive series, John A. Davis has the opportunity to put all of the new car models through extensive road tests and to judge their practicality for buyers. He also acts as final editor on all of the new car road test segments and writes many of the test opinions as well as other portions of the program.

In 1998, Davis received an Emmy Award from the National Academy of Television Arts & Sciences for his role as host and executive producer of a "MotorWeek"-related special broadcast. Davis is one of the founders of the North American Car & Truck of The Year Awards, the only independent journalistic automotive award in North America. He has served on its executive board since 1995. He is also one of the organizers and an original member of the Washington Automotive Press Association. Currently, Davis is president of the International Motor Press Association, the oldest and most prestigious organization of automotive journalists in North America.

In recognition of his 20 years covering the auto industry, Davis received two Golden Wheel Awards in 1999, including the grand award, from the Detroit Press Foundation that annually honors the best in automotive journalism. Davis was also honored with a 1999 First Place Silver Dome Award for "Best Special Program & Feature," from the Illinois Broadcasters Association. The award recognized his role as co-executive producer and co-host of the WGN-TV Super Station special "Live At The 1998 Chicago Auto Show." A 1970 mechanical and aerospace engineering graduate of North Carolina State University, Davis also holds a master of business administration degree from the University of North Carolina. He was the 1969-1970 recipient of the W.D. Cartwright Memorial Engineering Scholarship and a member of the Pi Tau Sigma honorary scholastic fraternity. Prior to joining MPT, Davis worked for the Wall Street brokerage firm of Kidder, Peabody and Company as a transportation analyst. Davis has owned a variety of high performance cars, including vintage Ford Mustangs, a Chevrolet Corvette, and a DeTomaso Pantera. "MotorWeek" offers him that rare opportunity to bring the enjoyment of a hobby to his professional life, and to use his broadcasting, engineering and analytical expertise to bring information and insight to those who enjoy cars.
