Fred Stein has produced nearly 3,000 major events, including Philadelphia’s 300th anniversary, the bicentennial of the U.S. Constitution, Pope Francis’ visit to Philadelphia and two Philadelphia Eagles Super Bowl parades. Stein is managing a health condition that affects his speech, so listeners may notice pauses or vocal difficulties during the conversation. He appreciates your patience during the recording.
In this episode of What One Thing, Stein joins host Devin Montgomery Pasha to explore how his early career in journalism shaped his approach to event production. He shares why research, personal stories and audience participation remain at the center of his work, whether he is producing an intimate gathering or an event attended by millions.
Stein also reflects on the unexpected moments that can define an experience, the responsibility of representing diverse communities and the sense of accomplishment that has kept him inspired throughout his career.
