In his 50 years with ABC Sports, Doug produced and directed programming for ABC's Wide World of Sports and the network's telecast of 10 Olympic Games, which set the standard for sports broadcasting. Doug is most noted for his innovative work in figure skating and gymnastics, for which he received 17 Emmy Awards. You can read all about Doug's incredible career and the advent of sports television in his memoir (which I helped him write!), The World Was Our Stage: Spanning the Globe with ABC Sports.
