He began his production company in 2010, following a career with NBC Sports and Olympics, which encompassed live events, studio shows, documentaries, and anthology programs. In three decades at NBC, Neal produced nine Olympics, four NBA Finals, two World Series, and a Super Bowl pregame show. Since 2010, David Neal Productions has produced more than 250 hours of television for varied clients, including Univision, the Professional Bull Riders on CBS and NBC, and Epic Poker on CBS and Velocity.
