Biography of Michael Voris
At , Michael Voris, S.T.B., president and founder of St. Michael’s Media, is among the generations of Catholics who simply didn’t receive thorough and accurate catechesis. Through his Catholic television show, The One True Faith, and his collaboration with www.realcatholictv.com, Mr. Voris intends to change that.
EDUCATION
Voris graduated from Notre Dame in 1983 with a degree in Communications and concentrated studies in history and politics. Equally impressive is his theological education. He not only trained as a young man in theology at the doctrinally-sound St. Joseph’s Seminary in New York, but in April of 2009, he received his Sacred Theology Baccalaureate (STB) from Sacred Heart Major Seminary/Angelicum in Rome – Magna Cum Laude.
TELEVISION
He spent a number of years working as a CBS affiliate anchor, producer and reporter, in various markets, winning multiple Emmys for his work in broadcast news. Working in the secular media provided him with not only the technical knowledge to produce excellent television programming, but a profound grasp of the need to produce programs that leave the viewer improved spiritually rather than merely entertained.
On May 8, 2006, Voris opened St. Michael’s Media, a new state-of-the-art digital television studio, dedicated to the archangel who Scripture promises will lead the victorious battle against Satan at the end of time (Rev 12:07). Located in Ferndale, MI, it is the production center of broadcast quality Catholic programs, designed to educate a generation of Catholics largely ignorant of Church teaching and to save souls from eternal damnation.
INTERNET
On September 1, 2008, he partnered with www.realcatholictv.com - the first ever online Catholic television station. Realizing that the internet is where it’s at, Voris and St. Michael’s Media began producing daily Catholic programming for viewers and subscribers of www.realcatholictv.com. Catholic News Roundup, The Shadow Priest and the ever popular, The Vortex, of which Michael Voris is the creator and host and which has been seen by millions of viewers, are just a few of the many innovative programs you will find on www.RealCatholicTV.com.
With a passion for saving souls, Voris epitomizes what it means to be a member of the Catholic laity today - to live out each day, what is meant by the new evangelization, utilizing the tools of the 21st century.
