legends1In April 2001, the Northwest chapter of the National Academy of Television Arts and Sciences brought together three legends of northwest broadcasting. Phil Sturholm, chief photographer at both KING and KIRO television and founding member of SCCtv, joined Ancil Payne, former head of KING Broadcasting and Chris Wedes, aka JP Patches, for a lively, funny and frank discussion about local television. The event is hosted by yet another legend, Bill Brubaker of KOMO Television.

With the recent passing of Phil, all three of the event's honorees are no longer with us. But their stories live on.

Watch on SCCtv every Sunday in September at 7PM.
