Baruch Shemtov is an American reporter, journalist, fashion designer and entrepreneur. He was the entertainment Anchor on Good Day New York on Fox 5 NY WNYW from 2017 to 2019. He was the New York correspondent for Young Hollywood, a special correspondent for Extra. Shemtov founded a line of ties that currently sell in Japan at Journal Standard's TRISECT, and online at Zozotown.^[1]

Early life

Baruch Yehudah Shemtov was born in Philadelphia on September 22, 1987, to Chantzie Annette Waldman and Dr. Menachem Mendel Shemtov, a urologist and son of Abraham Shemtov.^[2]^[3] His family moved to Manhattan when he was a year old.

Shemtov attended the Ramaz School, and by his senior year he had completed classes at the Fashion Institute of Technology^[4]^[5] and interned with Jonathan Adler^[6]^[4]^[7] and Ralph Lauren Corporation.^[8]

When Shemtov was fifteen years old and "fed up with his school dress code",^[9] he turned a "very typical powder-blue cowboy bandana" into a necktie and wore it the next day.^[8] "People loved it and wanted me to make it for them," he shared with CNN in 2005.^[9] Shemtov also came up with a new concept which he named the "double tie," a necktie with a second tie stitched on its top half.^[3]^[9]^[10]

Aside from fashion and design, Shemtov made his on-camera debut as the narrator for Chabad.org's "Chanukah Play" when he was five years old.^[11]

He graduated from high school in 2005 and earned a Bachelor of Arts degree in psychology from Harvard College in 2009. Shemtov attended Harvard Business School from 2013 to 2014, but took a leave of absence to pursue his media career.

Fashion career

In 2003, at age fifteen, Shemtov pitched his hand-stitched prototype neckties to retailers and began working with a New York manufacturer to produce them.^[9] His ties debuted at Jelly in Boerum Hill, Brooklyn,^[2] and were then sold at Cantaloup and Takashimaya^[3] where his first collection, consisting of his signature “double tie,” a kimono tie, and a bold metallic mesh tie,^[12] sold out.^[2]^[6] His ties were modeled at New York Fashion Week in Bryant Park later that year.^[9]

In a few early press interviews, Shemtov shared that he hosts all his business meetings at The Carlyle^[2]^[3] and that he got some of his best business advice from Donald Trump, who told Shemtov, "Sell a lot of ties."^[6]^[13]

In 2005, Shemtov began designing women's T-shirts. He launched a limited edition collection that premiered alongside his neckties at Kaje on Rodeo Drive in Los Angeles.^[12]

Shemtov was a finalist in Russell Simmons' Race to BE entrepreneurship competition, and opened the New York Stock Exchange with Simmons in November 2008.^[14] Shemtov was also featured in an episode of PBS's Biz Kid$ and closed the NASDAQ with the show in April 2009.^[15]^[16]

Media career

After graduating from Harvard College in 2009, Shemtov worked at CNN,^{[citation needed]} and hosted a series of video interviews called "Baruch.tv" on The Huffington Post.^[17] Shemtov first joined Young Hollywood in 2012. He soon became the official New York correspondent for the network, and worked there through 2015.^[18]

In June 2014, Shemtov began making appearances on WNYW- FOX 5 on Friday Night Live,^[19] the 5 p.m. and 10 p.m. newscasts.^[20] and other segments as a freelance reporter.^[21]
