Wednesday, February 2, 2011

From an unpaid radio jockey and reporter, Ed Bradley built a career as an award-winning journalist, highly acclaimed for his work on 60 Minutes. After hearing a Philadelphia DJ speak at his college class, Bradley was intrigued and started spending part of his day at the station. After extensive live coverage of the Philadelphia riot in 1964, he proved his ability and gained increasing recognition, taking on assignments around the globe. Bradley later became the first African American at CBS to serve as a White House Correspondent.
