Bøker av Ken Davis

Ken Davis began his career as a small-town radio DJ during his college years. Little did he know he would later find himself face-to-face with a notorious serial killer in the middle of the night; be nearly shot by a world-famous music producer; or unexpectedly come across the lifeless body of a legendary Hollywood bombshell. Along the way, he hung out with everyone from Barack Obama to Walter Cronkite to Sting. These are but a few of the many adventures in Davis's memoir about his colorful Emmy-award-winning career in television. But this is much more than a "tell-all" book filled with juicy anecdotes about famous people. It's a down-to-earth and often humorous story of a man who must juggle his family and his "mistress" while trying to overcome adversity, ethical dilemmas, and an industry going through relentless change. Along the way, readers get a backstage pass to many classic TV programs, including "The CBS Evening News," "EXTRA," "PBS NewsHour," and "Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous," as well as venture inside the most historic TV station in the country. Prepare to go behind the closed doors of one of the most enjoyable, harrowing, and seductive industries in the world. Once you hop "In Bed with Broadcasting," you may love her or you may want to run for cover-but you will never forget her.
