Mark Cronin

An Ivy League graduate with a degree in Chemical Engineering, Cronin spent five years working as an engineer in research and marketing. All the while, he was moonlighting as a freelance joke writer for an award winning newsbreak spoof on Nick-at-Nite. Cronin switched careers permanently when he joined Howard Stern's nationally syndicated Saturday night television show (the infamous "Channel 9 Show") as one of the only two staff writers in 1991. Quickly, his responsibilities on the show expanded to include scripting entire episodes, producing celebrity interviews, and producing comedic field pieces. Mark contributed to Stern's national radio show and served as producer/writer on all of his television projects, including his "New Year's Rotten Eve" pay per view special - the highest grossing non-sports pay per view event of all time. Cronin also scripted an entire E! Entertainment Television special for Stern's book Miss America. Moving from New York to LA, Cronin became the Head Writer
