Talk Show Host/Author Mickey Burns Guests On Harvey Brownstone Interviews

Harvey Brownstone conducts an in-depth Interview with author/”Profiles” TV talk show host Mickey Burns.

Mickey Burns is an iconic television talk show host, producer and author from New York City, whose immensely successful, award-winning interview program, “Profiles”, is currently ranked at number 8 on the Hollywood 411 List of the Top 50 Talk shows in the World.

After a successful broadcasting career with a number of television networks, he created his unique interview program, “Profiles” in 1999, and has interviewed well over 500 prominent celebrities including Christopher Plummer, Robert Wagner, Carol Channing, Smokey Robinson, Joan Collins, Dick Cavett, Joan Rivers, Isaac Hayes – and believe me, we are just scratching the surface.

His TV show, which airs on the NYC Media Network in New York, has won 7 Telly Awards, and those awards are so well deserved, because this man is renowned for his research, insightful questions, compassion and sincerity.

Mickey Burns was honored with the Outstanding Alumni Award from his alma mater, Missouri Valley College, which also bestowed an Honorary Doctorate upon him in 2012. He’s also written 2 books: a fascinating memoir entitled, “From the Projects to Profiles”, and a beautiful coffee table book entitled, “Inside Celebrity Profiles: A Visual Journey”, which is filled with photos, quotes and fun facts from the set of his show, featuring some of his most illustrious guests.

Harvey Brownstone is a retired judge of the Ontario Court of Justice and was the first openly gay judge in Canada. He is also the bestselling author of “Tug of War: A Judge’s Verdict on Separation, Custody Battles and the Bitter Realities of Family Court” and hosted “Family Matters with Justice Harvey Brownstone,” a television talk show on matters involving the family justice system.

​After a distinguished legal career, Harvey was appointed a judge at the age of 38 in 1995.  He has presided in family and criminal courts.   He has been a trailblazer in several ways.  He was the first openly gay judge in Canada.  He was the first sitting judge in the world to write a national best seller and to host a TV talk show.

​Harvey has been a role model and icon in the LGBTQ community.  When same-sex marriage was legalized in Canada in 2003, he was the only judge to make himself publicly available to officiate at weddings for lesbian and gay couples travelling to Toronto from all over the world to get married.  In 2007, he officiated at the wedding of Edith Windsor and Thea Spyer, the American couple whose marriage triggered the 2013 United States Supreme Court decision overturning the definition of “spouse” in the federal Defense of Marriage Act.

​In February 2021, Harvey launched his online talk show “Harvey Brownstone Interviews” on his own YouTube channel. He saw this as an interesting hobby.   Within several months, the show attracted hundreds of thousands – and then eventually, millions – of viewers.  Because of the overwhelming success of the show, Harvey decided to retire from the judiciary on December 31, 2021 after having presided as a full-time judge for 26 1/2 years.  Free from the constraints imposed upon judges regarding the expression of opinions and the endorsement of private enterprise, Harvey now happily devotes his full-time attention to hosting “Harvey Brownstone Interviews” as a regular member of the public – albeit one with a rather illustrious and unique career history.
