Barber Productions was founded in 2003 by veteran radio broadcaster Bruce Barber and entrepreneur Mac Haskell. The company’s goal is to create informative, entertaining and socially conscious programming for radio and digital media.
For the past three years, Barber Productions has been responsible for ”The WNPR Health Forum”, a show heard weekly on the Connecticut Public Broadcasting Network. In January of 2010, Bruce also became the local host of WNPR’s weeknight and Saturday morning programs.
He’s also worked on national advertising campaigns for Microsoft and Weber Grill Seasonings, and hosted a series of promotional webcasts for CRN International from Unilever’s headquarters in Englewood Cliffs, New Jersey.
Each summer, Bruce hosts series of player interviews at the New Haven Open professional tennis tournament on the campus of Yale University, and recently Bruce helped create a 65th Anniversary radio campaign for a highly respected Connecticut chain of eyewear stores, Kennedy and Perkins.
Bruce has also expanded his producer’s role at Connecticut Public Broadcasting, and is currently heard Sunday afternoons at 4:30 with co host Duo Dickinson on The Real Life Survival Guide, a public radio show that develops questions to be answered on a corresponding website.
