He baffled competition by setting up a large monitor in the truck and zooming in for close-ups that looked like exclusives. NOSE FOR NEWS: During his long tenure at ABC, Roger Goodman spear- headed technological advances including the over-the-shoulder graphics box, and the first live transmission from a nuclear submarine. He received a Lifetime Achievement Award in News Directing in 2010. PUNCHY: A pioneer who helped create the narrative film in America, John Ford was also one of the founders of the Directors Guild. Best known for his Westerns, he went to West Point for the true-life story of a salt-of-the-earth Irish immigrant in The Long Gray Line (1955). He received a Lifetime Achievement Award in 1954.
