Overview

Born a British citizen, Shuter immigrated to the United States. At the age of 20, he got his first job in America as a summer intern in the largest Broadway press office, Boneau/Bryan-Brown.

Returning to the United Kingdom to receive his Master’s degree in Political Science from the University of Edinburgh in Scotland, he moved full-time to New York after graduating.

Starting as a receptionist for the public relations company Bragman, Nyman Cafarelli, eventually he was running the entertainment division at Dan Klores Communications representing Bon Jovi, Alicia Keys, Jessica Simpson, Naomi Campbell, Diddy, Esquire Magazine, Kate Spade, Estee Lauder, and many of entertainment's biggest events.

In 2007, he left the world of public relations to become executive editor of the struggling American edition of OK! Magazine.

OK! also during that time got the first exclusive interview with Britney Spears post breakdown.
