About Richard Reid

Richard Reid has television production companies based in Los Angeles, CA USA.   Notable among his successes are his academic competitions which are produced around the world, including...

University Challenge is in its 45th year in the United Kingdom. It can be seen on BBC2, Monday nights at 8:30, forty-five weeks a year.  University Challenge is the most famous TV quiz programme in British history. It is produced through the College Bowl Company.

College Bowl is entering its 54th year. It is an Emmy and Peabody Award winning landmark in sponsor supported programming. It was picked by TV Guide as one of the three greatest games ever.  Produced by the College Bowl Company as a live event, College Bowl is now a part of life at over 300 U.S. campuses.

Honda Campus All-Star Challenge, played at America’s Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs), is in its 18th year. It starts as a grass-roots programme at all HBCUs and culminates in a national championship tournament every spring, featuring the top 64 schools. Honda Campus All-Star Challenge is a live event. Produced by the College Bowl Company, it is one of the most treasured events in the African American community.

Celtel Africa Challenge is a major undertaking for another of Richard Reid's companies, RRTV.  To launch the programme, the company has established an African subsidiary company with its headquarters in Nairobi, Kenya.  Richard Reid TV is committed to building sustainable production resources in Africa.  In concert with Celtel and a team of U.S.-based trainers, the company's goal is to enhance the core competence of production personnel in the region and to provide local employment opportunities in all aspects of the programme.  To inquire about employment opportunities, please email Mary Oberembt.

Richard Reid has devised a unique formula for educational competitions which has proven itself in ways that are reserved for very special programmes, increasingly reinforced by his programs' longevity, awards, sponsor, broadcaster, government and community support.
