Here’s a great photo from loyal reader Kathi. Click here to see a larger version of the photo. I’ll let Kathi tell you more about it:
Hey Jason – Thought your readers might enjoy this photo I recently dug up from my days as Promotion Manager at WLOS. This was taken in 1982 (yikes) and you’ll see there are some familiar faces still there today: Darcel Grimes, Stan Pamfilis, Sherrill Barber, and recently retired Bob Caldwell. For those who’ve been around a while, there are some others people may recognize: Lisa Clark from PM Magazine, weatherman Bob Becker, anchors Deborah Furr, Jerry Mayer and Larry Wheeler. And of course, Mort Cohn!
There are plenty of off-camera staffers who are still there and in this picture, and a bunch of others like myself who used to work there and are still in town. However, but you won’t find me in this picture. I was up on a ladder directing people – this was the station’s Christmas card and it was my department’s responsibility to produce it. Longtime WLOS production man Skeet Plemmons, also a commercial photographer – and who’s still at the station – took the picture.
Cheers!
Kathi
