Jon Elliott is an American progressive talk radio personality, formerly featured on Air America Radio.

Prior to his radio, TV, and Film career, Jon served as the Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board of Directors of multiple companies.

During his 35 years in business he has worked in all phases of corporate management holding executive positions with corporations in the health, hospitality and food industries. He has also served as CEO and President of Capitol Television Network and Royal Casino Group, both publicly traded companies.

The company was eventually renamed Baymark Technologies and Jon served as President, CEO and CFO of Baymark Technologies until January 2006, at which time he resigned from the company as the company was restructured and renamed Implantable Vision.

In October 2004, The Jon Elliott Show began airing for two hours on Sunday afternoons on KLSD radio in San Diego, California. After he filled in for Air America hosts, Jon's show was picked up nationally by Air America Radio in September 2006. Billed as This Is America with Jon Elliott and airing live Monday through Friday from 10 PM to 1 AM Eastern Time, the show was also carried on XM radio channel 167 America Left. The Air America show ended on May 15, 2009.

Jon was the first national broadcast personality to announce live on air that he has epilepsy. He did so with guest John Meacham, the then Editor of Newsweek magazine [www.thedailybeast.com/newsweek.html] who had devoted almost an entire issue to epilepsy, Jon’s neurologist and his wife Katherine. That show earned Jon and his production staff a San Diego Press Club “Excellence in Journalism Award” on October 20, 2009.
