David P. Zanotti Biography
President & CEO, The American Policy Roundtable
David Zanotti grew up in a family of six in a small home outside Cleveland, Ohio. His father was a WWII veteran. His grandparents were Italian immigrants.
Mr. Zanotti attended Cuyahoga Community College, Mount Vernon Bible College, Mount Vernon Nazarene College, and did graduate work at Ashland University. He left his family's manufacturing company in 1985 to join the Roundtable.
David Zanotti currently serves as President/CEO of the American Policy Roundtable. He also serves as President of Roundtable Freedom Forum, a legislative organization and is Chairman of The Liberty Committee, a federal Political Action Committee.
In 1989, Mr. Zanotti began hosting a news and commentary broadcast, The Public Square®, which has become one of the longest running daily feature broadcasts in America. Today, The Public Square®, co-hosted with Wayne Shepherd, is heard across the nation in both the daily and weekend editions and via the Internet. In October 2007, The Public Square® hosted the national radio special, “The God Delusion Debate” featuring Oxford Professors John Lennox and Richard Dawkins. In 2008, Mr. Zanotti and Mr. Shepherd co-hosted the historic national radio broadcast of The Saddleback Civil Forum on the Presidency, moderated by Rick Warren.

Mr. Zanotti has been blessed in marriage to the same wonderful wife since 1976. Together, they have worked to raise three children in the hope of faith, family and liberty. His favorite movies are all comedies. After more than thirty years in public policy, he would still rather have lunch with Billy Crystal or Bill Cosby than attend a meeting at the White House or on Capitol Hill.
