Summer Mirisch
From birth, Summer Mirisch has been a part of the entertainment business. Her mother Sandy Mirisch and her grandmother, Toni Kelman, owned the most powerful children's talent agency in the business. Her father, David Mirisch was one of the most recognized publicists of all time. At the age of 9 months, Summer landed her first commercial. By the age of 14 she had done over 24 National commercials. After years of growing up in the entertainment industry, Summer decided to join the family business: David Mirisch Enterprises. At 16, she plunged right into the Master of Ceremony position at the Magic Mountain State Cheerleading Championships. She is now in her tenth year hosting the Championships.
Summer is establishing quite a name for herself in the industry and has learned quite a bit while under the helpful guidance of David. While David Mirisch continues his relationships with Hollywood's "prominent" actors and athletes, Summer has secured relationships with Hollywood's younger actors and action sports athletes. She has worked with skateboarder and business owner Tony Hawk, Cory Feldman, Sean Austin, Cris Judd, Soleil Moon Frye, Matt Gallant, Wendie Malick, Pierce Brosnan, David Faustino and many others.
Currently, Summer has become an independent partner of David Mirisch Enterprises and is still working diligently on the production and celebrity booking for all of the DME events that the company aquires.
