Biography

Dan Patrick is the host of "The Dan Patrick Show" (1-4 PM EST.) Patrick also writes for ESPN The Magazine. He authors "Outtakes," the magazine's most popular page featuring a no-holds-barred, question-and-answer interview with the sports world's most interesting figures. In May 2000, Patrick released a book entitled "Outtakes," published by Hyperion, based on the magazine column. Patrick served as the primary host of ESPN SportsCentury, the network's 30-minute, weekly series profiling the 50 greatest North American athletes of the 20th century.

In January 2000, Patrick was named the National Sportscaster of the Year by the National Sportscasters and Sportswriters Association (NSSA), making him just the second cable commentator to receive the honor.

Patrick's reports feature astute knowledge, a dry sense of humor and his unique perspective as well as a style which provides a "comfort zone" for his co-host. Dan Patrick received a CableACE Award in 1997 for his work on SportsCenter.

Some of Patrick's finer moments have appeared on SportsCenter's Sunday Conversation, ESPN's in-depth interview segment, where he has brought out the best in many of sports' premier personalities -- including Michael Jordan, Mark McGwire, Barry Sanders, Wayne Gretzky, Larry Bird, Reggie Jackson and Bill Murray.
