"In 1970, there was a flyer announcing the beginning of the annual “IRTF Internship Program” on the bulletin board of Radio, TV & Motion Pictures Department at UNC-Chapel Hill.  I wish I had a copy of my neatly-typed application because it was good enough to have been selected.

WOW.  Eight weeks immersed in broadcasting in NYC!

My folks lived in Princeton so I took the Suburban Transit bus for the daily commute.  I learned that if you were working in Manhattan, you wanted to live there too.

The best part was the two weeks I spent at WPIX-Channel 11.  NEW YORK’S VERY OWN.  Jim McCann was VP of Sales and he took me under his wing.  He encouraged me to move to NYC and seek a sales job in radio or TV immediately after I graduated from UNC.  And that’s what I did in 1974.

With the help of IRTS’s Steve Labunski, I interviewed to be sales AE at WCBS-AM, WNEW-AM, WHN and Blair TV.  Dick O’Donnell hired me as the first member of Blair TV’s new training program.  But they weren’t quite ready to run a formal training program so I got my own agency list a month later in the Blair-TV “Market Division”.

Obviously, IRTS had a HUGE influence on my life and career.  And marriage.

It was wonderful.  After 5 years in NYC at Blair TV and another 5 years at Blair Radio, and meeting the love of my life Mary Schuck Peiser, we moved to San Antonio to be Director of Sales at KTSA/KTFM for the legendary Bernie Waterman.

After 20 years in San Antonio, Mary and I moved to Pensacola to build a new, 100,000-watt FM station on 98.7.  Today we own WYCT/CatCountry98.7, WNRP/NewsRadio 1620 and WEBY/ESPN Pensacola 1330.  We are hyper-engaged in serving our local community and love our lives as BROADCASTERS."

"I couldn't be more grateful for the opportunity to be a part of IRTS. It gave me the tools, connections, and experiences to be ready for the first step in my career after graduating college. Not only did the program prepare me for professionally, but also introduced me to some amazing and brilliant friends along the way! It was TRULY an unforgettable summer."

"Not only did IRTS provide me the summer of a lifetime, it truly was the best launching pad for my future. I was able to come into my first job with industry knowledge, refined networking skills, and the best support network. Seriously the best group of people, I get to live with another IRTS alumni and work closely with 2 others! So comforting to move to a new city with lots of close friendships waiting for you."

"IRTS has provided a community that has supported me from college to my first full time job. I have a network of people that are able to aid me in career decisions for decades to come because of the Summer Fellowship program. I'm forever grateful for being apart of the 2018 cohort."
