oldies music telethon programs.

Lubinsky was born in Bradley Beach, New Jersey, to Mr. and Mrs. Herman Lubinsky, Jr. His grandfather, Herman Lubinsky, Sr., founded Savoy Records in Newark, and introduced acts that would be influential in modern popular music (Doo-Wop, Motown, disco and Top 40). Lubinsky, Sr., also founded and operated New Jersey's first radio station WNJ. His uncle, "Buzzy", was also a well-known club disc jockey in New Jersey. At 16, TJ obtained his General Equivalency Diploma and accepted his first television job at Monmouth Cable TV-34 in New Jersey, where he learned his craft for television production. He worked on different news, studio, and sport remotes that served 31 towns, boroughs and municipalities along the Jersey Shore.

When he turned 22, Lubinsky was offered a job to work for PBS in south Florida, and eventually Pittsburgh, often considered the mecca of oldies music. In Pittsburgh, he blended his passion for Doo-Wop, Motown, classic Philly Soul and 60s Rock and Roll oldies into PBS's most successful fundraisers as the creator and executive producer of "Doo-Wop 50", and over 30 national television specials from PBS which archive America's soundtrack from the 50s, 60s and 70s through his "My Music" series. Lubinsky is notable for producing the 2005 "Stereo Motown Box Set", which offers such classics as "Tracks Of My Tears" by The Miracles, "Going To A Go Go", "Heat Wave" by Martha & The Vandellas, "Quick Sand", "Please Mr. Postman" and "Forever" by The Marvelettes, "Uptight" (Everything Is Alright) by Stevie Wonder, "My Girl" by The Temptations, and "Since I Lost My Baby".

Lubinsky is also one of the executive producers of "The Very Best Of The Ed Sullivan Show" seen on public television.

He is also notable for bringing to U.S. television several episodes of "Doctor Who" that were never before screened in the United States. In 2003-2005, he also archived and restored several introductions made for the American broadcast of "Doctor Who" episodes from the Tom Baker era, with voice-overs by Howard DaSilva. These were included on the BBC DVD releases.

Lubinsky currently hosts a Wednesday and Sunday night request show on Sirius Radio ("Doo-Wop Gold") 9pm to midnight EST, and a Sunday night request show on WJRZ-FM from 7pm to midnight EST.

Many artists and singers have lauded the young producer for his talent at driving membership at PBS and supporting interest in more obscure types of music, primarily because of his own passion for oldies music.
