Tony Toscano

Tony Toscano is a nationally recognized movie critic and film historian who has been reviewing films for over 3 decades. Tony grew up in Southern California, just outside Los Angeles. While attending Jr. High School, Toscano began writing a weekly movie review column for his school paper. Directly because of his weekly column, Tony was asked to write a film review column for the San Gabriel Valley Tribune. Always interested in television and film, it’s no surprise Tony’s first job was a disc jockey at his hometown radio station and began to review films and interview celebrities as a regular feature of his radio show and “Talking Pictures” was born.

Moving from LA to Utah to co-host a morning radio show on Utah’s KABE FM 107, his film reviews were heard once a week and became a staple of the popular morning program. Toscano began taking live calls from listeners and discussing current movies. In 1996 Tony made the jump from radio and newspapers to television as the film critic on CBS in Salt Lake City, and then to KJZZ TV where he hosted the popular “Movie Review Show” and then his own production, “Talking Pictures.” In 2002 Tony was honored with his first Emmy Award for his program.
