Video bio of Chuck Workman, inducted to Indiana Broadcast Pioneers Hall of Fame in 2011.
Producer/Voice-over: Dave Smith;
Post-production: DreamVision Media Partners;
As a teen, Chuck Workman frequented the legendary jazz clubs along Indiana Avenue in Indianapolis. His dream of becoming a broadcaster was realized when he went to work at WTLC-FM, the city’s first station fully owned by African Americans. In 1969 he joined WTTV-TV as a sportscaster, and in 1974 became the first African American sports director in Indiana, a role he continued while also becoming the station’s public affairs director in 1980. Over the years, the smooth-voiced Workman hosted jazz programs on WFYI-FM, WTPI-FM and WICR-FM. He authored a long-running jazz column for NUVO, and in 2010 was honored by Black Expo for his contributions to jazz culture. He died March 25, 2012, at his Indianapolis home at age 79.

The final egg represents Earth and the narrator says, "The sum of man kinds knowledge, unscrambled to make an encyclopedia children want to read..." The scene ends with a close-up of World Book Encyclopedias.
