I owe my career to Albert T. Primo.![]()
![]()
Watching ABC7NY Eyewitness News inspired me to become the editor of my high school newspaper, The Daltonian, and then to major in journalism at Northwestern.![]()
![]()
Shortly after graduation came the unforgettable thrill of walking into the newsroom as a just-hired member of EWN. Albeit the very lowest member. Just a desk assistant. ![]()
![]()
Al had left by then, but the EWN ethos was already imprinted in my DNA. No doubt my total buy-in to the concept he pioneered fueled my rise from DA to writer to program producer. Over the years, I caught Al’s notice and we became friends.![]()

When I left WABC to start a production company - first with Roseanne Scamardella and then with my wife, Tania – Al would bring projects he wanted produced in the “Eyewitness-stye.” ![]()
![]()
Most notably, TEEN KIDS NEWS.![]()
![]()
Yet again Al saw a need that everyone else was missing: a TV program that would give age-appropriate news to young teens...delivered by teens.![]()
![]()
It was an instant success, clearing some 200 stations in just a handful of months. ![]()
![]()
I can still see Al’s megawatt smile lighting up the huge hotel ballroom as we accepted Teen Kids News’ first Emmy. ![]()
![]()
And I’m grateful Al was well enough last week to watch the special anniversary program launching TKN’s 20th year on the air.![]()
![]()
So many lives have been changed for the better because of this visionary giant. It’s been a privilege working with him. Albert T. Primo will be missed.![]()
