Jack Craciun, a Cleveland, Ohio businessman attended Ohio’s University of Toledo, where he majored in Business Administration. He began an entertainment industry career in the sixties as a featured dancer for the Jeff Kutash Review and Kutash’s locally broadcast Upbeat television show. In 1967 he began his career in marketing as Regional Promotions Director for Liberty-Blue Note Records in New York. In six months on the job, his marketing and sales team broke the song “Up, Up and Away” by The 5th Dimension and Vikki Carr’s “It Must Be Him”, promoting sales in excess of 2 million records. Record promoters such as Craciun were introducing rock acts to the nation via a distinctly Cleveland fervor.
