Keith E. Gunther

Keith gave me my first job in broadcasting as the first female journalists for KSD ( at the time) launching a career that took me to NYC...the big time as an anchor for a local station and eventually contributor to The Today show. I shall never forget him giving me a chance. And I shall remember him for his kindness, wisdom and mentorship.

I dont know Keith's family. But I want them to know how he changed my life .Not only did he hire me for my first real job at the age of 22....but he gave mea chance. Helen and Richard Weiss, (his News Director) friends of my mother's enabled my introduction to Mr. Gunther. Straight out of journalism school I walked into his office scared out of my wits. He was generous with his time and really showed a personal interest in a conversation that could have been with a caring uncle!!! He put me...

I remember coming to his office with my typewritten resume hot off my Royal.He was paternal but never condescending. He wanted to know what kind of person I was. "What are you doing back in St. Louis?"When I told him I returned to...
