- Jack Narz's career in television spanned nearly 30 years. After the service and a short but productive stint in local radio, Narz started in television late in 1950 as announcer on early-TV classics like Space Patrol (1950) and Life with Elizabeth (1952). Moving on to host the trouble-prone Dotto (1958) and Video Village (1960), Narz worked steadily in radio and TV until achieving his biggest success with the syndicated version of Concentration (1973) in 1973. After Concentration (1973) left the airwaves in the fall of 1978, Narz semi-retired, but he remained active for years on the celebrity golf circuit and on behalf of several charities.
