SallyAnn Salsano is the Founder, Executive Producer and CEO of the Daytime and Primetime Emmy nominated bona fide hit factory, 495 Productions. They boast one of the most diverse, entertaining and commercially successful rosters of reality programming on television, with hit series spanning multiple networks.
Since its inception in 2007, Salsano has been the creative force behind each of the company’s dynamic series. As the creator of the highest-rated series on both MTV (“Jersey Shore”) and CMT (“Party Down South”), along with the record-breaking VH1 hit “Martha & Snoop’s Potluck Dinner Party,” Salsano has cemented the reputation of 495 Productions as being one of the industry’s leading production companies.
By continuing to create a wildly diverse portfolio of ground-breaking television, Salsano and her 495 Productions hail credits from networks including NBC (“Nashville Star”); FOX (“More To Love,” “The Real,” the successful syndicated daytime talk show); MTV (“Winter Break: Hunter Mountain,” Floribama Shore,” “Snooki & J-Woww,” “FriendZone,” “Disaster Date,” “The Pauly D Project,” “A Shot at Love With Tila Tequila,” “A Shot at Love 2,” “A Double Shot at Love: Shot at Love 3,” “Jerks With Cameras”); BRAVO (“Invite Only: Cabo”); HGTV (“Design Star,” “The Antonio Project,” “$250,000 Challenge”); SPIKE (“Tattoo Nightmares,” “Tattoo Nightmares: Miami,” “Repo Games”); CNBC (“Blue Collar Millionaires”); NAT GEO (“Taboo USA”); OXYGEN (“Dance Your Ass Off,” “Tattoos After Dark,” “It Takes A Sister,” “Tanisha Gets Married”); LIFETIME (“Mother/Daughter Experiment: Celebrity Edition,” “Love Handles”); SYFY (“Fangasm,” “Viral Video Showdown”); TLC (“Hear Me, Love Me, See Me,” “Wedding Island”); TV GUIDE (“Nail Files”); ABC FAMILY (“Freak Out”); VH1 (“Tool Academy,” “Wedding Wars,” “Mama Drama”); WE-TV (“Love Blows,” “Ex-Isle”); and VICELAND (“The Untitled Action Bronson Show”) among others.
In a monumental moment for both Salsano and 495 Productions, FremantleMedia North America acquired a majority stake in the company in 2014. Salsano remains at the creative helm of the organization, solidifying her reputation as the most hands-on executive producer in reality television.
