One running the show (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

emcee

'one running the show' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for emcee that I've seen before include "A host of Americans" , "Someone presenting" , "Announcer" , "One presents" , "Master of Ceremonies (informal)" .)

I've seen this clue in the New York Times.
