John Drain '83, Media Changemaker

Changemaker Chat is a special podcast series honoring Nazareth University's Centennial Celebration, featuring engaging conversations with notable individuals who've changed — and continue to change — their industry, their community, and the world for the better, inspired by their personal connection to Nazareth.

The first episode of Changemaker Chat features a conversation between Nazareth University President Beth Paul, Ph.D., and John Drain '83, chief financial officer of Hearst Television, Inc. in New York City, and a fascinating changemaker leader. Hear how Drain has successfully navigated his career — and the organizations he's led — through the dramatically changing media landscape, and how his experience at Nazareth has inspired and informed him along the way.

Nazareth's Centennial Celebration is presented by Wellington Steele & Associates and the Leva Family.
