Congratulations to my friend and collaborator, Doug Wilson, who will be inducted into the Sports Broadcasting Hall of Fame in a ceremony to be held on December 17, 2019 at the New York Hilton Hotel in Midtown Manhattan.
In his 50 years with ABC Sports, Doug produced and directed programming for ABC's Wide World of Sports and the network's telecast of 10 Olympic Games, which set the standard for sports broadcasting. Doug is most noted for his innovative work in figure skating and gymnastics, for which he received 17 Emmy Awards. You can read all about Doug's incredible career and the advent of sports television in his memoir (which I helped him write!), The World Was Our Stage: Spanning the Globe with ABC Sports.
As a member of the Broadcasting Hall of Fame's Class of 2019, Doug joins an elite group of legendary professionals who have made an indelible mark on sports television. Congratulations, Doug!
