Sam Greenfield
Since he began in talk radio in Las Vegas in March of 1997,
Sam Greenfield has made a huge impact on the format. His
show attracts listeners from every venue of life, from
truckers to teachers, from entertainers to politicians.
Sam blends a unique style on his show. His years as a
standup comedian serve him well in the show's lighter
moments, and his phenomenal ability to call up facts and
statistics from every facet of Americana allow him to engage
callers and interviewees with a technique so uncanny that
the Las Vegas Sun wrote, "unfortunately, he is on the air
for ONLY three hours."
Originally from Washington, D.C., Sam graduated with honors
from Howard University with a Bachelor of Fine Arts and a
Masters Degree in Education. He quit his doctoral program to
join a rock band and, since that time, has been a standup
comic, actor, writer, and now enjoys success in his chosen
field of talk radio.
His career in the electronic media began on the NBC cable
network "America's Talking" the predecessor to
MSNBC. He co-hosted "Pork," an hour-long daily
television show discussing government fraud and waste. As
co-host, he conducted interviews with government officials,
journalists, and economic experts.
Then he was hired by the CBS owned news/talk station in Las
Vegas, AM 840 KXNT, to host the coveted afternoon drive time
slot. While at KXNT, Sam discussed a wide range of topics
and had the privilege of interviewing many famous and
renowned guests from journalism to sports, and politics to
entertainment. His guest roster included Howard Kurtz,
Sidney Sheldon, Hillary Clinton, Nat Hentoff, Charles
Rangel, Mark Shields, Mills Lane, Bert Sugar, Mitch Albom,
Jesse Jackson, Al Gore, John Glenn, Sen. John McCain, Jay
Leno, Eleanor Clift, Joy Behar, Michael Isikoff, Karl
Malden, Tim Robbins, Willis Reed, The Smothers Brothers, The
O'Jays, Lewis Black, Dick Schapp, and Art Buchwald.
He then returned to his adopted hometown of New York (he had
lived here for the eleven years prior to going to Las Vegas)
to host the evening talk show on News/Talk 1050 WEVD.
In addition, he appeared on the highly rated Fox News
Channel's weekend entertainment show, "The Insiders", and
has made dozens of appearances on Fox News, CNN, and MSNBC.
From there he became the host of "Drivetime Dialogue" on
WWRL 1600AM. Now Sam mans the mornings for WVNJ in New
Jersey.
Sam lives in Manhattan with his wife Barbara Singer, a
talented performer and writer, and their daughter, Cassie
Greenfield. He is active in community affairs and gives of
his time to charitable organizations.
