Behind the scenes, Bruno
stands out
 ost
kids watching Nickelodeon and TV Land don’t think about the
real people who put their favorite shows like Blue’s Clues,
Rugrats and I Love Lucy on television. But one of those
real people is Raquel Bruno ’93, coordinator of acquisitions
for Nickelodeon, TV Land and Nick at Nite, who recently received
the MTV Networks/Viacom employee of the year award.
“It was a big surprise,” said Bruno. “I’ve only
been there for four years, so I never thought I would get the award.”
She was recognized for her contribution to Nickelodeon’s launch
of TV Land, her team spirit, positive attitude and willingness to
teach others.
Bruno attributes much of her success to her former boss who passed
away in 1994. “Her determination was a true inspiration for
me,” said Bruno, who established a summer internship program
in her boss’ honor.
Bruno also volunteers for area shelters collecting toys and clothing
and with Nickelodeon’s nationwide Big Help program which encourages
and motivates kids to become involved in their communities through
volunteering.
