Wurtzel has been a Producer on recent game shows like “25 Words or Less,” “Pictionary,” and “Celebrity Game Face,” and a part of groundbreaking reality programming, like “The Celebrity Apprentice” and “Kitchen Nightmares.” Since 2010, Adam has worked on “Dick Clark’s New Year’s Rockin’ Eve with Ryan Seacrest,” in charge of producing all live Times Square content involving co-hosts like Jenny McCarthy and Liza Koshy.
Combining passion and experience with unabashed enthusiasm, he has served as on-air correspondent for” 25 Words or Less” and “The Early Show.” The host and creative visionary can currently be seen on TV’s across America on the nationally syndicated “Nashville Insider” (now in its 8th season), “Up ‘n Adam” on The CW Charlotte’s daily morning show “Rising,” and live on stage as part of “Bob Eubanks Presents: Hollywood’s Greatest Game Shows.”
