TV Photo Memories

Welcome to Northeast Ohio TV Memories.  This is a site for photos and memories of the people who worked in front and behind the cameras in Cleveland Area television since 1947.  There is no agenda, just a collection point for memories of the times and things we did on and off-camera. 

WE NEED NEW PHOTOS TO KEEP THIS SITE FRESH. PLEASE SHARE SOME OF YOUR PICTURES WITH YOUR FORMER COLLEAGUES. 

My name is Neil Zurcher and I spent 42 years working for WJW-TV, Channel 8 in Cleveland.  However this site is open to folks from WEWS, WKYC, WOIO, WVIZ, WUAB, WKBF and any other station in northern Ohio.  We welcome your photos.  You can send them to me at neilzurcher@gmail.com

Thank you to Dr.  Alan Stephenson at John Carroll University who has supplied many of the early photos on this site from the wonderful Media Collection at John Carroll. 

My personal collection of photos is getting low so I encourage my colleagues from over the years to dig into your own photo albums and help us keep this collection growing.

Enjoy the memories!
