Born in upstate New York, Mark Anthony was raised in the San Francisco Bay where at age eight he would read Time Magazine cover to cover and invite his family to hold kitchen table discussions about the articles he was reading. As a child, he was always passionate about his country. Anthony wrote several letters: one to Jimmy Carter for ruining the country, and one to his hero
President Ronald Reagan. Having the benefit of two successful entrepreneur parents, it gave him the drive to innovate and succeed at a very young age.

While at Xerox, his father authored, “Professional Selling Skills” which was regarded as the gold standard in sales methodology. It was adopted by companies worldwide when training their sales teams. His mother was equally
successful in advertising and won national and regional awards for her television and radio spots. His first love, politics, took a back seat during the high-tech boom in Silicon Valley. During the market explosion Mark built a
special brand of self-confidence, talent, and drive as a top-level consultant for the leading market research firm Giga Information Group founded by the iconic Gideon Gartner and acquired by Forrester Research. While at Giga, he
empowered his clients to meet their business objectives by consulting with C- level executives at well-known brands such as Microsoft, HP, Intel, Apple, Cisco,
EMC, and Oracle.

In 2008, Mark moved politics to the front seat and became a successful fundraiser and architect for several political events. He also served as campaign manager for two congressional races. While growing in his Christian faith, Mark continued to feel the need to fulfill his true calling and his purpose. He created The Patriot and The Preacher talk show to call Christians back to the vision of our Founding Fathers.

In January 2013, Mark launched The Patriot and The Preacher with co-host with Ben Kinchlow, the former co-host of the 700 Club. The show’s unique format: a place where politics and religion do mix, coupled with Mark’s engaging interviews and Ben’s great wisdom, was an instant hit with listeners expanding from one station to 53 nationally syndicated outlets in just four years while garnering 1 million listeners weekly.

The Patriot and The Preacher welcomed over 900 guests and proudly includes on that list: Former President Donald Trump, Former Speaker Newt Gingrich, Franklin Graham, Dr. Alveda King, Governor Glenn Youngkin, Phil Robertson, Michael Reagan, Pastor Greg Laurie, Victor Davis Hanson, Kelly Ann Conway, Dick Morris, James Rosen, Senator Mike Lee, Dr. Ben Carson, Roger Stone, David Limbaugh, Peter Navarro, Brian Kilmeade, Paul Manafort, Ann Stone, Mark Meadows, Janice Dean, Pete Hegseth, Michelle Malkin, Leigh Steinberg, Scott Walker, Senator Ted Cruz, Jeanine Pirro, Larry Elder, Pat Boone, The Oak Ridge Boys, Dr. Carol Swain, Andy McCarthy, Xi Van Fleet, and Charlie Kirk Mark led an evangelical funded bus tour throughout the battleground states of North Carolina, Pennsylvania, Virginia, and Ohio during the 2016 Presidential election, in support of the Trump/Pence campaign covering 15,000 miles over a ten-week period. He worked closely with local politicians and faith leaders to produce and host over 20 town halls which drove registration/ voter engagement.

Mark has partnered with Producer Mark Joseph who is also credited with the developmental marketing for the movie “Ray” and “Chronicles of Narnia”, “The Lion”, and “Passion of the Christ.” Mr. Joseph gave Mark Anthony the responsibility of working on the marketing, promotions and launch for the movies Unplanned, No Safe Spaces, and Reagan: The Movie (2024). At CPAC 2019, Mark organized and was responsible for the screening of Unplanned in the main ballroom drawing a standing room audience of over 1300.
