Join us for an intimate brunch with one of New York's most successful UF alumni, Flody Suarez!

Flody Suarez is a Television/Film executive and Producer who is currently producing “The Cher Show” for Broadway and “What’s New Pussycat, A Tom Jones-ian Musical” for the Westend as well as executive producing “Rise,” a drama for NBC, written by Jason Katims.

Seller/Suarez is currently developing two comedies for NBC, a Neil Gaimen drama project based on the best selling novel, “Interworld” and the drama “The Role” for FreeForm through his Seller/Suarez TV production company at NBC Universal.

Moving back to NY in 2013, Suarez consulted on NBC’s “The Blacklist” and “The Michael J Fox” show for Sony Television and then consulted on the launch of the Emmy winning “Full Frontal with Samantha Bee” for TBS. 

Suarez was previously executive producer of NBC’s award winning “The Book of Daniel,” a provocative, edgy, and compelling drama that chronicled the life of an unconventional Episcopalian minister (Aidan Quinn) who struggles with the weight of doing the right thing for his family and his parishioners.

Prior to that, Suarez was vice president of Development for NBC, where he oversaw production on the Emmy-winning series “ER,” Emmy-nominated series “3rd Rock from the Sun,” “Just Shoot Me” and “Men Behaving Badly.” He segued to primetime series from NBC’s communications department, where he spearheaded launch campaigns for “Friends,” “NewsRadio” and “The Screen Actor’s Guild Awards,” as well as directing campaigns for “Seinfeld,” “Frasier,” “Law & Order,” “Homicide: Life on the Street,” “The Laugh-In 25th Anniversary Special,” “Serving in Silence: The Margarethe Cammermeyer Story” and over 100 NBC television movies and specials.

From 1989 to 1992 Suarez was vice president of marketing for Miramax Films and was responsible for advertising campaigns on “Cinema Paradiso,” “The Grifters,” “Madonna: Truth or Dare” and “The Cook, the Thief, His Wife and Her Lover,” among many others.

From 1986 to 1989 he was vice president of advertising for Della Femina Advertising, where he oversaw the Rolls Royce, Bentley, USA Cable Networks, WCBS-TV and New York Mets accounts. Prior to that he served as director of advertising for Penthouse Publications.

Suarez received his BA in Communications from the University of Florida.
