About

In 1979, Jeff Smulyan had a vision to transform underperforming radio properties into thriving media assets. Armed with a law degree and an entrepreneurial spirit, he purchased WSVL, a small FM station in Shelbyville, Indiana, and founded Emmis Broadcasting. The name Emmis comes from the Hebrew word for truth, reflecting a commitment to authenticity that would become the cornerstone of the company culture. Over the next four decades, Emmis evolved from a single radio station into a diversified media powerhouse, owning market-leading radio stations in New York, Los Angeles, Austin, and Indianapolis, along with city/regional magazines and digital properties. Today, Emmis operates as a highly entrepreneurial company that has earned a reputation as one of the most respected media organizations in the industry, known for its innovative culture and commitment to giving employees the tools they need to succeed.
