As an NBC Page, he witnessed programs featuring the legendary Arturo Toscanini conducting the NBC Symphony, the Fred Allen Show and The Voice of Firestone. He was there for the television debuts of Howdy Doody, Sid Caesar, Milton Berle and Perry Como.
He moved on to an advertising career in New York and Hollywood as a commercial producer and program supervisor on many family shows, including Your Hit Parade, You Bet Your Life with Groucho Marx, and others starring Bing Crosby, Jack Webb, Johnny Carson and Danny Kaye. He spent six unforgettable seasons with General Electric Theatre and its host, Ronald Reagan. From 1979 through 1990, he was Director of Program Standards ("Censor") for NBC-TV, responsible for Saturday Night Live and Late Night with David Letterman.
Mr. Clotworthy’s long association with major personalities and successful, sometimes controversial, programs provides an interesting and unusual perspective on the television industry.
Mr. Clotworthy, a native of New Jersey, is a graduate of Syracuse University. He currently lives in Asheville, North Carolina.ver menos
