I've been after...Pulitzer-Worthy TV Interviews<br /><br />I've been after my UNC journalism pals for years to put Bill Friday's "North Carolina People" programs up for yet another round of professional and educational recognition--a Pulitzer Prize for "one-on-one" broadcast journalism.<br /><br />Yes, Dr. Friday is known statewide and across the country for his pioneering, forward-looking leadership in the field of higher education as was evident nearly half a century ago when President John F. Kennedy made a stirring Founders Day address on the University's Chapel Hill campus in October 1961.<br /><br />But since his "retirement" from educational stewardship, and you certainly have to put that in quotes because he has stayed "in the thick of it" as far as evaluating and defining educational priorities is concerned, Bill Friday has given us, over a period of many years, a first-rate series of television broadcast interviews with influential individuals in the Old North State in the form of his popular and critically acclaimed "North Carolina People" programs on the UNC statewide television network.<br /><br />So since some of us who did not attend UNC-Chapel Hill don't enjoy much influence on the state and national journalism scenes, we are counting on our friends in the UNC journalism community to make sure the good folks on the Pulitzer Prize editorial board are aware of what an outstanding and illuminating series of broadcast interview programs has been hosted on "North Carolina People" through the years by Dr. William Friday.<br /><br />You don't have to be a David Brinkley, Tom Wicker or Charlie Kuralt to recognize that in addition to his enduring legacy in higher education leadership, Bill Friday deserves honors on the journalism front for showing how a one-on-one television interview, in the Edward R. Murrow tradition, can help people across a richly diverse state find their bearings for building upon a proud past and forging a more promising future for North Carolina and the Nation.David P.

While he doesn't go out much in the evenings, as Jack notes, he is making an exception for An Evening With William Friday later this month for the folks at N. C. Spin. As he approaches his 90th birthday in July, his step is a little slower and his back a little more stooped, but his mind is as sharp as ever and his advice still sought by countless people every day. I refuse to imagine what life will be like without Bill Friday in North Carolina.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22040291.post-12383241732442105292010-03-11T20:30:25.796-05:002010-03-11T20:30:25.796-05:00I remember singing Christmas carols on the lawn of...I remember singing Christmas carols on the lawn of Bill Friday's home on Franklin St. with a group of friends from Cobb Dorm in 1971. Dr. Friday came out on the porch and listened, and thanked us.
