The Broadcasting Years, 1958-1989: Memoir of a Television Pioneer
Sandra V McGee,William L McGee
In his sixth memoir, award-winning author and television broadcast pioneer, William L. McGee, recounts his 32-year career in broadcast sales. Written in his signature straightforward and journalistic style, the author delivers a chronological and factual account of his work in an industry known for its competitive edge, and his rise in the field as an innovator in broadcast sales and co-operative advertising. McGee takes the reader behind the scenes on the other side of the television camera into his Mad Men world with its creativity, deadlines, excitement, too much travel, and many martini lunches.
The memoir is well-organized and chronicles McGee’s career in four parts:
Part I: Syndicated Television Program Sales, 1958-1962 Part II: National Radio and Television Station Rep, 1962-1967 Part III: Television Station Management, 1968-1970 Part IV: The BMC Story, 1971-1989
In 1982, McGee was recognized as a Broadcast Pioneer…one who has served the great cause of broadcasting since 1958.
