Peter Musurlian and his wife Szilvia, at the 2007 Los Angeles Area Emmy
BURBANK-Peter Musurlian, the Station Manager and Senior Producer for
The Burbank Channel, received two Los Angeles Area Emmy® nominations,
announced on June 30 by John Schaffner, Chairman and CEO of the
Academy of Television Arts and Sciences.
The nominations are Musurlian's third and fourth over the past decade,
and come on the heels of his achievement of winning five Golden Mikes
in January at a Universal City awards banquet sponsored by the Radio
and Television News Association of Southern California.
The Los Angeles Area Emmy® Awards, which will be handed-out in North
Hollywood on August 6, are given for broadcast achievements produced or
solely financed and controlled by the Los Angeles television stations
or cable television systems.
One of Musurlian's nominations is in the category "Information/Public
Affairs Series (more than 50 percent remote)." It was for his
quarterly news and feature program, Burbank Magazine, which Musurlian
single-handedly produces, shoots, writes, reports, anchors, and edits.
Burbank Magazine is up against an NBC4 program, LX.TV Open House,
as well as the powerhouse KCET program, SoCal Connected, which has
a budget 10 times that of Burbank Magazine.
The other nomination is in the category, "Public, Municipal and
Operator Produced Cable," for Musurlian's mini-documentary called,
"Seeing Beyond Borders," which traced the steps of Burbank Lions Club
members, participating in a program that brings free eyeglasses to
remote and impoverished areas around the world.
Musurlian also worked solo on that piece, which included shooting
video & interviews in Northern California and Chihuahua, Mexico.
Musurlian has been with The Burbank Channel, the City of Burbank's
government access station, since 1998. Prior to that, he spent 8
months in Central Europe, reporting for American Forces Network,
as a member the United States Army. In the 1980s, he reported for
television stations in Montana, Texas, and Washington, D.C.
Musurlian is a graduate of USC's School of Journalism, and holds
master's degrees from Baylor University, American University and the
University of Redlands.
Musurlian is a former ANCA-WR Board Member; a 1983 ABC News intern,
as part of the Armenian Assembly Summer Intern Program; and is married
to a high school Social Science teacher at AGBU-MDS in Canoga Park.
