Nile Evans decided to pursue his longtime career goal of becoming a television writer/producer after attending Menlo College in Atherton, California in 1995.  He called on a valuable resource within his family, Executive Producer Bentley Kyle Evans, who hired him as a production assistant. Soon after, Bentley took him under his wing as a writers’ apprentice on the hit television series, The Jamie Foxx Show. In the show’s third season, Nile’s knack for comedy was proven when he was asked to join the writing staff as an on-set punch-up writer. In between seasons, Nile worked with writing crews for various A-list comedians including Jamie Foxx, Martin Lawrence, and then rising star Nick Cannon. Nile’s relationship with Nick led him to help Nick develop his first talk show pilot for Nickelodeon. In 2004, the duo penned a film together that sold to Overbrook Entertainment.  Their creative synergy solidified as Nile worked with Nick to produce the pilot for MTV’s Wild’n Out. The hit series helped launch the careers of Taran Killam and Pete Davidson (Saturday Night Live), as well as comedy and film stars Katt Williams and Kevin Hart. Nile and Nick have continued to work together co-writing the TV movie The Wonder Girls (Nickelodeon), which rated phenomenally, and most recently, the film School Dance (Lionsgate).In 2007, Nile helped develop a spinoff sketch show called Short Circuitz for MTV, and a pilot for reality-producing giant 51 Minds. Nile parlayed his relationship with the production company to produce his own reality series starring music artist Ray-J, For The Love of Ray-J. Since then, Nile has served as writer/producer on Love That Girl (TV One), Family Time (Bounce TV), In The Cut (Bounce TV), and Mind of a Man (GSN).Beats by Dre tapped Nile to write for their Beats Pill campaign in 2013, where he developed new ways for the company to launch their advertising cartoon mascots. Yearly, Nile serves as presenter and host writer for the BET Awards and BET Hip Hop Awards, writing for talents such as Sam Jackson, Chris Tucker, Kevin Hart, Mike Epps, Snoop Dogg, and Chris Rock.  Nile has continued to develop his relationship with MTV, extending himself to their sister network, MTV2, where he worked as Supervising Producer on Hip Hop Squares, and currently heads Wild’n Out as the executive producer/showrunner. The relaunched series holds the record as the highest-rated show in the network’s history.
