TVC 725.4: Ed welcomes Hal Eisner, the multiple award-winning broadcast journalist who covered the news every day for fifty-eight years, including fifteen years at various radio stations in Texas and Louisiana and the last forty-three years on television in Los Angeles, primarily as a field reporter for FOX 11, but also for KCOP (Channel 13) and, for a few years, as a reporter for the L.A. bureau of CNN. Hal's memoir, An Accidental Career, is available through Amazon.com. Topics this segment include how Hal's ability to connect immediately with the people whose lives he covered—a trait he got from his dad—has served him well throughout his career, even in difficult circumstances; the power of organic reporting; and why Hal chose to remain in Los Angeles and cover local news after his tenure at CNN ended. For our listeners in the Greater L.A. Metro area, Hal Eisner will appear at Vroman's Bookstore, 695 E. Colorado Blvd. in Pasadena, CA on Wednesday, Mar. 4 beginning at 7pm.
