The Talent Behind the Talent Wendy McSwain ’88 wanted her MTV. “I was involved in all kinds of activities at Moravian, and I would come home at night and decompress by watching MTV,” she says. “I was fascinated by it, and I just knew it was where I wanted to be.” So much so, that she paid to take a summer class after graduation so she could qualify for an internship with MTV news. Her first job at the network was in production, but when she took a position as a casting director she really hit her stride. “I enjoy tracking down the right person for a project, figuring out where to look,” she says. “It’s like putting pieces in a puzzle.” From casting Club MTV and other programs, to running her own talent and booking company, to her most recent position as senior director of MTV talent/casting and management, Wendy says a key to success is being able to put potential talent at ease. “You have to make people comfortable and help them open up, so you can have a conversation and see what their personality is about,” she says. Along with casting VJs and producing the reality show Rich Girls, Wendy has found time to run in a half-marathon in Alaska, teach English to kids in Romania and the Ukraine, and sing in clubs throughout New York City. “I’ve been singing all my life,” she says. “Back in the day, I used to sing with a bar mitzvah band. There's a picture of me in the book Bar Mitzvah Disco, I’m the only shiksa in it.”
