60 years ago today, November 18, 1951, Edward R. Murrow’s See It Now premiered on CBS. While Murrow, Fred Friendly, Robert Pierpoint, Howard Smith, Eric Severeid, William Downs, Joe Wershba, Larry LeSueur and Ed Bliss are well known, the photogs and soundmen who worked on See It Now are not.

Without their thousand pound pencils in the form of 35mm motion picture cameras and Western Electric sound systems equipment, See It Now would have just remained the radio show Hear It Now.

The camera crews that worked on See It Now:

• Norman Alley (camera)
• Martin “Marty” Barnett (camera)
• John “Bocky” Bockhorst (camera)
• Donald Gies (camera)
• Robert Huttenloch (sound)
• Charles “Charle” Mack (camera)
• William “Bill” McClure (camera)
• Charles “Chic” Peden (sound)
• Leo Rossi (camera)
• Herb Tice (sound)
• Andrew Willoner (sound)
