SYNOPSIS: "Well, here we are, and good morning to you. The very first good morning of what I hope and suspect will be a great many good mornings between you and me. Here it is, January 14, 1952, when NBC begins a new program called Today and, if it doesn't sound too revolutionary, I really believe this begins a new kind of television." - Dave Garroway opening the first Today show. Since those historic words went on the air - for the past thirty-five years - millions of people each weekday morning have turned on their television sets to watch the Today show. The history of this lustrous show is - in many ways - a history of television and of American culture; a virtual Who's Who of stars, personalities, and political figures have been presented on Today. The Today Show: An Anecdotal History is the first book to tell Today's history with comments and stories from the stars of the past, such as Dave Garroway, Estelle Parsons, Jack Lescoulie, Frank Blair, Lee Meriwether, as well as the more recent personalities-Hugh Downs, Tom Brokaw, Joe Garagiola, Barbara Walters, Frank McGee . . . to name just a few. In addition we are introduced to the countless people behind the scenes, from producers to unit managers to stagehands and the coffee lady - the people who work with the current cast of Jane Pauley, Bryant Gumbel, Willard Scott, and Gene Shalit. This nostalgic book shows the complex dynamics of producing the first and longest-running morning TV show . . . Today. This is the book for all television enthusiasts. Illustrated with over eighty photographs, it is full of inside facts and trivia, plus the humorous, the serious, the congenial, and the revealing moments that only a live show can produce. Gerry Davis has been associated with the Today show for over five years and has created and presented on the air more than thirty-five segments on varied topics. She is also the author of The Moving Experience. Size: 4to - over 9¾" - 12" tall. Ex-Library. Seller Inventory # 001975
