Autorenporträt
Journalist Tim Kiska joined the Detroit Free Press in 1970. He moved to the Detroit News in 1987, covering the television industry between 1990 and 2002. With a doctorate of philosophy in history from Wayne State University, Kiska serves as an associate professor at the University of Michigan-Dearborn and is a producer at WWJ-AM. Ed Golick has been a superfan of Detroit television since he first heard the guttural growls of White Fang on the original Lunch With Soupy show. In 2002, he created detroitkidshow.com, a Web site dedicated to Detroit children's television programming. Golick has taken his high school AV Geek title to the next level--as audiovisual technician for the Detroit Board of Education.
