Mark's Story

Mark Snyder has been in radio for over forty five years--starting as a nine year old hosting a local kid's show on a suburban Boston station. At Curry College, he co-founded the school's FM radio station, WMLN-FM 91.5, and served as its first Promotions Director, a DJ, newsman, and sportscaster. He was a co-founder of "The Curry Arts Journal", a literary magazine which recently celebrated its 40th anniversary, and a co-founder of the Curry Drop In Center, which counseled Curry's students. Snyder was editor-in-chief of the school's newspaper, The Currier-Times, and served as Vice President of his class for all of his four years there. After college, he followed that early success with the highly-acclaimed Singles Lifeline Show, which ran on eight radio stations and resulted in over 200 marriages. This culminated in his current Mark Snyder Show, a celebrity interview/entertainment program, that ran on WMSX (1410 am) for almost nine years and since 1998 has been heard on the World Wide Web at pmpnetwork. Snyder also created Radio A La Carte, a food show that aired for three years on radio. He continues to review food on his internet program, and on his websites, with his well-known hatred of vegetables and love of red meat, pizza, and spicy foods. Needless to say, vegans are not his biggest fans. Snyder, a product of Curry College and Marquette University, is Founder & CEO of Professional Marketing & Promotions Company (PMPCO) and the CEO of PMPNetwork, Inc, the internet's entertainment superstation, which has recorded over 225 million "hits", and over 9 million unique visitors since its inception in 1998. His expertise in public relations, marketing and promotions dates back to his first position as Assistant Director of Public Relations and Sports Information at Curry College. Since then, Mark has handled public relations, copywriting, media placement, marketing and promotions for over 85 clients, including food establishments, law firms, medical practices, financial companies, game companies, political candidates, colleges, and even Grammy-winning performers. Among those he gave early publicity to were TV shows like "24", "That 70's Show", and "Ally McBeal". Artists he helped along the way included Janis Ian, Tiny Tim, Susan Tedeschi, Cheryl Wheeler, Lori McKenna, Maria Sangiola, Suzanne McNeil, and dozens of others. Mark was honored in the Millennium (2000) issue of Who's Who in America; the 1996 and 1997 editions of Who's Who in the World; the 25th anniversary edition of Who's Who in the East; the 1997 edition of Who's Who in the Media, and was the youngest honoree in Who's Who Among Student's in America's Colleges and Universities (1975 edition). He was also listed in the College Social Register of 1976. Snyder's poetry has won three national awards, and was published in the Boston Globe. He has written a weekly column for Gatehouse Media New England (Stoughton Journal), "Snyder's Stoughton" since December of 1998, and he hosted a popular TV show of the same name on local access for nearly eight years, until he stopped producing it in April of 2011. It can still be found on You Tube. Snyder has published four books and has had over 3000 published articles and stories in national, regional and local publications. His second book of poetry, "Feelings" was the best-selling poetry book in Wisconsin in 1977, selling over 16,000 copies. Autographed copies of this first edition have sold on Ebay for hundreds of dollars!. His column, "Snyder's Web", which appeared in 17 publications, has been downloaded by tens of thousands online. He began writing a daily local column, "About Town with Mark Snyder" in late 2010 for America Online's "Patch" on-line newspaper, which he stopped writing...Expand for more
