Donald
Glen Bradley
(1927 - 2004) |
Donald spent
a half-century in Montana broadcasting. After beginning
his career as announcer and later program director
for KGVO Missoula, Don Bradley co-founded KRTV in
Great Falls in 1958 with long-time friend Dan Snyder.
He managed KRTV and Billings' KULR and then became
national sales manager and later vice president
of operations for the Montana Television Network
from 1969-1984. He also managed KTVH Helena and
ended his career again managing the station he helped
found. Bradleys management philosophy: "You
do what you can do at the moment and go on to the
next thing." He consistently won the respect
of people who worked for him. Says a former KRTV
director: "He put the entire medium in perspective
for me. For someone who has accomplished so much,
Don Bradley is so humble." |
