Dave Holmes, Author/Former MTV VJ

Dave Holmes is the editor at large for Esquire.com and a former VJ on MTV. He got the VJ job in the late 1990s after being a contestant on MTV's "Wanna be a VJ?" contest. His book "Party of One" is an honest and hilarious memoir about being a boy in a big Catholic family in St. Louis in the 1970s, about his time on MTV, about feeling like he was "different" at an early age, and about how being a closeted gay kid led to him feeling like an outsider.
