About Mike Mike Rowe is a TV host, writer, narrator, producer, actor and spokesman. His performing career began in 1984, when he faked his way into the Baltimore Opera to get his union card and meet girls, both of which he accomplished during a performance of Rigoletto. His transition to television occurred in 1990 when - to settle a bet - he auditioned for the QVC Shopping Channel and was promptly hired. Thanks to QVC, Mike became practiced at the art of talking for long periods without saying anything of substance, a skill that would serve him well as a TV host. Then, through a horrible miscalculation, he pitched a three-hour special to the Discovery Channel that ended up resulting in the show Dirty Jobs. Viewers liked it and Discovery responded by ordering 39 episodes - a shocking commitment that Mike was contractually obligated to honor. For the first time in his career, Mike went to work with a vengeance. 9 ANNUAL CONFERENCE PANELS & SESSIONS
