What got you into the business in the first place?
I met a CBS-TV camera man in Michigan and he invited me to sports events such as the Detroit Gran Prix and NASCAR. In each instance I was able to go into the television truck and go to the winners circle at the end of the race. Who was a big influence in your career? Bob Costas, I wanted to be a sports writer and television broadcaster. Needless to say I did not do either, but I have enjoyed the writing and the marketing aspect of public relations.
