Mark Haines (April 19, 1946 – May 24, 2011) was a host on the CNBC television network.
Early Life and Education
Haines grew up in Oyster Bay, New York, and resided in Monmouth County, New Jersey. He attended Denison University and the University of Pennsylvania Law School.
Career
He was a member of the New Jersey bar association.
He was a news anchor for KYW-TV in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania; WABC-TV in New York City; and WPRI-TV in Providence, Rhode Island. It is reported that Cary Grant considered Haines his favorite television reporter.
Haines will be best remembered as the host of the CNBC TV shows Squawk Box and Squawk on the Street. Squawk on the Street was expanded from one hour to two on July 19, 2007, when then co-anchor Liz Claman of the highly popular Morning Call abruptly left to co-anchor Fox Business on the Fox Business Network alongside co-anchor David Asman.
At the time of his death his current show, Squawk on the Street, had until recently been co-hosted with Erin Burnett. She moved on to CNN, with May 6, 2011 being her last show with Haines.
Haines also presented a financial segment prior to the market open each day on MSNBC's Morning Joe.
Death
On May 25, 2011, Haines' wife Cindy reported that he had died at home on the evening of May 24. He is survived by his wife, a son, and a daughter.
Just after the market opened on May 25, CNBC broadcast that Haines had died the previous evening. There was silence on the trading floor and CNBC presented a retrospective on his life and career. A special television program about his life and career aired on CNBC that evening.
The family never released the cause of death but the Monmouth County medical examiner’s office reported that he died of ”natural causes,” namely “congestive heart failure due to cardiomegaly.” The signing physician was his personal physician, Dr. Eugeny Olenko of Forest Hills, N.J.
