Show Notes

Having received most of broadcast journalism's top awards including three Peabody awards, two National Headliner awards, a duPont-Columbia citation, and the Robert F. Kennedy award for a year-long investigative effort, Alan Griggs has a storied career. He met U.S. president Jimmy Carter. He hired Robin Roberts, beloved morning show host, early in her career. Despite his numerous accomplishments, Alan remains highly approachable and disarmingly candid at times. He has entered a second career in teaching, blessing students and allowing folks like me to call him friend.
