Streaming Stars, Then and Now

A veteran of Broadcast and Commercial production, George Wolf was described by a colleague as a director who can write, and a writer who can direct, a producer who is genuinely productive.

Born and raised in Paterson, New Jersey, George Wolf began his career in broadcasting immediately upon finishing his education, moving to New York, where he initially started as a freelance writer of radio scripts, later working as an assistant to Herb Moss.

During World War II, he was assigned as writer and producer of training and documentary films at the Army Signal Corps Photographic Center in Astoria, New York.

After the War, Wolf became a writer/producer in NBC's Radio's press department, where he wrote and produced on a weekly show, "Your Radio Reporter". He also collaborated with Lawrence Bearson on a play titled "The Ivory Tower", which opened and closed in Westport, Connecticut.

In 1947, he left NBC and joined the radio department at Foote, Cone, and Belding Advertising Agency, where he helped organize the agency's first TV department, eventually becoming director of commercial production.

By 1953, Wolf went over to Geyer Inc. as Vice President in charge of radio and television, a department that encompassed programming as well as commercial production. He would then work in a similar position at Ruthrauff & Ryan Inc., after three years, Wolf left and started his own television packaging company, "Providence Productions".

In 1960, he joined Lennen & Newell as supervisor in the TV Department, he was later appointed Vice President in charge of commercial production, and would become senior Vice President.

For four years during the mid-1950's, Wolf wrote a regular column on the creative aspects of commercials for Advertising Agency Magazine.

Additionally, Wolf had also written scripts for several television shows and movies, including a melodrama titled "The Miami Story", starring Lili St. Cyr, John Loder, and Richard Benedict. The film wasn't properly released until 1958 under the title "Josette from New Orleans".

We&#39;re fascinated with anything that tells a story in a new and different way. The &#39;gimmick&#39; commercials are interesting. Anything that makes a point is valid.

The answer to all this isn&#39;t simple, but if I were an author eager to break into television, I would select two or three producers (and agents) who&#39;s work I admired (and I would tell them I did) and submit material to them until I sold one of them.

When a work order is issued the producer, writer and art director meet and the creative process begins. This way the producer makes a contribution at the earliest stage of the commercial as well as during production and post-production editing.

No question that there is a great number of top-quality features that would make for top ratings on TV if available. But I believe these will be held for toll TV.

Law and Order executive producer Dick Wolf is the best thing that ever happened to NBC.

I like to promote my son when I can. He&#39;s an overachiever just like George W. Bush.
