TVC 546.4: Ed welcomes Emmy Award winner Ron Bacon. Ron spent thirty-five years in network TV production—mostly with ABC, where he wore many hats (including stage manager, associate director, writer, producer, and director) on more than 12,500 broadcasts, covering just about every type of programming available, including such variety shows as The Lawrence Welk Show, The Frank Sinatra Show, The Hollywood Palace, The Jonathan Winters Show, and Shindig; live events, such as the Academy Awards and Emmy Awards broadcasts; the now-iconic specials that Ernie Kovacs did for ABC just before his death in 1962; sporting events, such as the 1984 Summer Olympics (for which Ron won an Emmy); and many of the game shows produced by Chuck Barris, Monty Hall, and Goodson-Todman. The story of how Ron broke into television is a classic example of how persistence and networking, coupled with the right opportunity, can help you land the right job.
