Mark Dembo '86: Being and Seeing The Boss

Written By Christopher Morales

EPISODE SUMMARY

Before Mark Dembo '86 served on the alumni Board of Directors, he wore many hats from on-air talent to student executive roles at WVBR. However, it wasn't the smoothest of tenures like controlling an angry mob expecting to see a Bruce Springsteen concert.

EPISODE NOTES

About Mark Dembo '86:

Mark Dembo wore many hats with the Cornell Media Guild from 1982-1986. He was an On-Air DJ, Salesman, Sales Manager, Vice President, and General Manager. His choice of wearing ties made for a great professional look, but he didn't have the smoothest of rides (typical shenanigans for the Cornell Media Guild). He almost went into hiding following the near-disaster of a Bruce Springsteen ticket giveaway, and we finally close the book on the FM93 Coca-Cola Cruiser promotion three decades later. (Warren Kurtzman, this one's for you.) 

Mark earned his bachelor's degree in Industrial and Labor Relations and currently serves as the Regional Director of Corporate Programs for eCornell/Cornell External Education. He is also an elected member of the alumni Board of Directors!
