Our Team
Robin Schwartz
Founder + CEO
Robin Schwartz is a 13-time Emmy award-winning storyteller dedicated to uncovering, producing and promoting the untold stories that touch our lives.
She is the founder and CEO of Robin Schwartz PR. Robin started the firm after 23 years as a TV news anchor/reporter, including nearly 17 years at WJBK-TV (Fox 2 News) in Detroit. In 2014, she shifted her focus from reporting the news to working directly with newsmakers themselves as PR Director for Dan Gilbert’s Detroit-based real estate company. That big career move ignited Robin’s entrepreneurial spirit and inspired her to launch her own PR and video production firm in 2016. Robin is a graduate of Syracuse University. She and her husband live in metro Detroit with their “one good egg” who was born after Robin’s struggle with infertility.
