Dan Slepian is an award-winning investigative producer and a 27-year veteran of NBC’s venerable newsmagazine, Dateline–where he has developed and produced dozens of episodes, complex hidden camera investigations, and breaking news segments. Referred to as “A TV News Gumshoe” by The New York Times, Slepian’s investigations have helped solve cold cases, assisted in exonerating innocent people, uncovered corruption and sparked changes in laws. Most notably, Slepian is known for his in-depth investigations into cases of wrongful convictions as seen in "In the Shadow of Justice", Conviction", and “A Bronx Tale.” In February 2023, NBC News released “Letters From Sing Sing,” a seven-episode podcast hosted by Slepian that documents his 20-year journey investigating the wrongful conviction of Jon-Adrian “JJ” Velazquez. Before joining NBC News, Slepian served as the Audience Coordinator for the Phil Donahue talk show.
