Univision and Telefutura Television Groups Announce Restructuring and Promotions
LOS ANGELES, CA -- The Univision and TeleFutura Television Groups are announcing, effective August 2005, their owned-and-operated National Sales Division will reorganize geographically, dividing the country into three regions—East, Central and West. As a result, four Univision executives will be promoted to newly created positions.
With responsibility over all three regions, Charlie Stuart will be moved up to Executive Vice President, National Sales, based in New York. Stuart started his career in broadcasting twenty-six years ago as a Media Research Analyst at KTTV, Metromedia in Los Angeles, followed by a stint at KTVU, the Cox Communications-owned Fox affiliate in San Francisco. Today, he serves as Senior Vice President of National Spot Sales for all Univision, Telefutura and Puerto Rico, owned and operated and affiliated stations. In addition, Stuart oversees the National Research & Marketing and Marketing & Business Development groups. Prior to his current position, Stuart was General Sales Manager for Univision’s owned-and-operated San Francisco television station, KDTV-Channel 14. Stuart holds a Bachelor of Arts degree in Economics from the University of California at Berkeley.
Stuart will continue to report to Tom Arnost, Co-President of the Univision & TeleFutura Television Groups.
Reporting to Stuart for the East coast region, Frank Donaldson, currently Vice President, National Sales, New York, will become Senior Vice President, National Sales/East. Donaldson’s sixteen-year career started at Sunbeam’s Fox Affiliate WSVN in Miami. In 1995 Donaldson moved to New York as a Senior Account Executive for TeleRep and a year later joined Univision’s National Sales Division as an Account Executive. He was promoted to Team Manager two years later and then to Vice President, Team Manager in 2002. Donaldson is a graduate of Texas Tech University.
In the Central Region, Mike Reid, currently Vice President, National Sales, Dallas, will become Senior Vice President, National Sales/Central. Thirteen years ago, Reid joined KUVN-Univision Dallas directly after graduating from the University of North Texas. After two years as Local Account Executive, Reid moved to Univision National Sales as an Account Executive based in Dallas. Later went on to manage the
Univision Detroit office for two-years before returning to Dallas as Vice President and Team Manager, a position which he has held for the last six-years.
