Schwartz joins cPR from his post as an investigative journalist for ABC Action News in Tampa. Previously, he worked in New York City for WWOR. There, he reported from Ground Zero on 9/11, David Berkowitz (The Son of Sam serial killer) granted him the only interview he did in a 10 year span and he covered the trials of John Gotti.

He will lead the cPR media relations team on all accounts and work with others on marketing public relations strategies to build awareness, credibility and name recognition.
"When you need something to break, Matthew not only knows the right message to interest any reporter, but he personally knows reporters around the country to get the placements our clients expect. He's a name that people know and trust and we look forward to his work with all of our accounts."
During his career, Schwartz has also been a lead reporter in Cleveland, Richmond, Va., and Utica, NY. A native of Brooklyn, he graduated with honors in journalism from Ohio University.
