Letter from the President<br />
Greetings Friends and Colleagues <br />
and Welcome to our Sapphire Anniversary:<br />
45th Annual<br />
ROCKY MOUNTAIN REGIONAL <br />
EMMY ®<br />
AWARDS<br />
Last year we were able to get back together in person<br />
at the Phoenician Resort and what a great time we had,<br />
while taking some necessary precautions along the<br />
way. I remember telling you back then that by the time<br />
we celebrate again, we would hopefully be back to<br />
something reminiscent of “normal.” Well, here we are<br />
and it is great to see you!<br />
We are happy to have Theresa Maher as our Event Chair<br />
again this year and Mark Reda back as our Awards Chair.<br />
All the work for this event is accomplished throughout the<br />
year by committees, the Board of Governors and our<br />
indispensable team. I would like to give special thanks to Lara<br />
Gates, our long-time executive director for her fantastic service<br />
to our organization and members. She was recently recruited to<br />
join our parent organization, NATAS in New York. We did a national<br />
search to fill this unexpected, huge void and were very fortunate to<br />
find Jessica O’Toole at 12 News, in Phoenix. She and Lara worked side by<br />
side during the transition and Jessica is now our full-time administrator. I know<br />
they will both be immensely successful in their new roles and we thank them both<br />
for their service. None of what you will see and experience tonight would be possible<br />
without the hard work and dedication of the event team and board, which have been chosen by you, our chapter<br />
members. <br />
As you may be aware, one of our goals is to ensure we have a diverse group of board members, inclusive of the markets<br />
throughout our region, as well as all facets of our craft and industry. We will be announcing board elections soon and<br />
would be honored to have many of our members volunteer to fill these upcoming openings. If you are interested, please<br />
reach out to us.<br />
Another priority is to continue focusing on supporting and mentoring our future leaders through educational programs,<br />
scholarships and the Student Production Awards. When you have a chance, please check out the resources, information,<br />
and chapter history available at rockymountainemmy.org<br />
We are elated that we were able to return to in-person, stand-alone events for both our Gold & Silver Circle inductions and<br />
our Student Production Awards, this year. It was truly a team effort. My gratitude goes out to all those who helped make<br />
these events special for the honorees, nominees, recipients, and attendees.<br />
On behalf of the entire <strong>Rocky</strong> <strong>Mountain</strong> Southwest Chapter and your Board of Governors, we would like to congratulate<br />
all our nominees, recipients, and honorees.<br />
Thank you for joining us to celebrate together, or apart. Good luck, stay safe and be well, <br />

recognition for Dr. Craft<br />
who has dedicated his career to<br />
creating and nurturing exceptional<br />
journalism. <br />
As the longest-serving faculty member<br />

students for nearly a half century, developing<br />

television journalists. <br />

classroom, into the offices of some of<br />
the industry’s top media executives where he<br />
has provided critical counsel at the local, regional, national and<br />
international levels. A 2012 inductee into the Gold Circle Society, Dr. Craft<br />
has solidified his legacy in the industry. On behalf of the Board of<br />
Governors and the entire NATAS community, we thank you, Dr. Craft, for<br />
your commitment to education and excellence in journalism.
Letter from Awards Chair<br />
“Let your hopes, not your hurts, shape your future.”<br />
— Robert H. Schuller<br />
Welcome to the <strong>2022</strong> <strong>Rocky</strong> <strong>Mountain</strong> Regional<br />
<strong>Emmy</strong> Awards Ceremony. You are here because you<br />
created great content. Each nominee comes to the<br />
Gala with great hope. Remember, there are more<br />
nominees than recipients. Just to be nominated is<br />
a great accomplishment.<br />
<strong>2022</strong> has been a year of renewal and transition<br />
for the Awards Committee. Lara Gates, our longtime<br />
Executive Director has moved on to the<br />
National Academy of Television Arts & Sciences<br />
as their Awards Administrator. She was an<br />
invaluable part of our Awards process and a truly<br />
wonderful person. Lara graciously assisted during<br />
this year’s process. This chapter is blessed to<br />
welcome Jessica O’Toole as our new Administrator.<br />
Jessica is cut from the same cloth as Lara —<br />
personable, hard-working and a quick study.<br />
This year we also said goodbye to Connie Harmsen.<br />
Connie has secretly tallied and hand-checked all judges’<br />
ballots for longer than I can remember. She was a valuable<br />
member of our Awards team. Our heartfelt thanks to<br />
Connie. We welcome Twyla Bass onto our team and look<br />
forward to a great future.<br />
<strong>2022</strong> was another active year in our region. On the Professional level,<br />
there were nearly 900 entries. College entries numbered 137 with High<br />
School students producing more than 150 entries. As usual, every entry was vetted<br />
for potential eligibility and rules violations by the Awards Committee. Entries were judged by at least seven qualified peers<br />
from nine other chapters. We continued to utilize bilingual judging in several categories.<br />
Many thanks to all those chapter members who judged other chapter’s entries. You provide an important service to our<br />
chapter and to the entire NATAS community. It’s also an opportunity to study different techniques in content creation and<br />
learn new methods that could lead to future nominations.<br />
Special acknowledgement of the members of the Awards Committee, without whom all this work could not be done. The<br />
Committee is happy to answer all questions and help with any issues regarding the entry process.<br />
To the recipients, congratulations. Continue to do outstanding work in the future. To those who aren’t taking home a<br />
statuette, continue to work hard; continue to produce great content, continue to enter, and continue to let hope shape<br />
your future.<br />
“We have always held to the hope, the belief, the conviction that there is a better life, a better world, beyond the horizon.” <br />
— Franklin D. Roosevelt.<br />

INDUCTEE<br />
<br />
BRIAN CISEK<br />
Brian Cisek is the original Creative Services Director<br />
and Production Manager at AZTV 7, Arizona’s only<br />
locally-owned and operated independent station.<br />
Television and media were not Brian’s original plan<br />
for a career. He began his journey as an<br />
Astronomy/Physics major at the University of<br />
Arizona. The summer of his sophomore year he<br />
visited KUAT, the PBS station on campus, and<br />
was immediately hooked.<br />
Brian began his television career in New York,<br />
where he worked as an engineer/operator at<br />
Staten Island Teleport before moving to<br />
production manager at WLIG, an independent<br />
station on Long Island. In 1995, Brian and his wife<br />
moved to Phoenix where he landed a part-time job<br />
at FOX10 working as master control, tape and audio<br />
operator. He then took a full-time job at KUTP and<br />
the new United Paramount Network (UPN) as a<br />
promotions producer and line-producer for Phoenix<br />
Suns games. He found himself back at FOX10 when FOX<br />
Broadcasting Company bought the station in 2001.<br />
When KAZT-TV (AZTV) began in 2002, Brian was brought in to<br />
get the new start-up operating, and he never left. To Lynn Londen,<br />
station owner, “Brian has made himself indispensable as an integral part<br />
of all station operations and any success we achieve.” He is the creative<br />
force behind the station’s brand as well as wearing many other hats: producer,<br />
director, graphic designer, editor, photographer, promotions and outreach coordinator. <br />
“His willingness to provide whatever a client requests, and his desire to over-deliver has earned him<br />
incredibly strong relationships in the business,” says Rick Soltesz, station GM. Brian also developed<br />
and maintains the station’s internship program, and is proud to have helped in launching many<br />
promising careers. In addition, “Brian provides guidance to many independent program producers,<br />
helping to get their projects launched on broadcast TV,” according to Michael Petry, Creative Content<br />
Manager, Brian is a board member with the Arizona Broadcasters Association, recipient of Vitalant’s<br />
Media Person for the Year award, and enjoys speaking with high school CTE students and educators<br />
about his broadcast knowledge and experiences. Brian is also a regular blood donor, supports local<br />
charities and enjoys coaching youth soccer. Brian and his wife Maureen have been married for 28<br />
years and have three daughters: Nicole, Kathryn, and Emily.<br />

INDUCTEE<br />
PARKER HARMS<br />
<br />
It was a choice between working in the DA’s office or at a television<br />
station. For Parker Harms, that first big career choice out of college<br />
was an easy one, accepting her first job out of college at KOAA in<br />
Colorado Springs, Colorado. When she left Colorado what she<br />
took away from that first “promotions” job was a career-long belief<br />
in local news broadcast stations and their importance to our<br />
world. <br />
After a couple of years doing award-winning creative work for an<br />
agency in Dallas and freelance writing for WXYZ in Detroit,<br />
Parker moved back to Colorado for a short radio stint. Then, in<br />
1983 while visiting family in Santa Fe, an impulse call to a General<br />
Manager in Albuquerque, eventually landed her the top station<br />
marketing job at ABC affiliate KOAT. It was there that she began a<br />
career-long practice of working closely with news directors to<br />
blend marketing and public service efforts with the news product.<br />
“When I was the News Director at KOAT-TV, Parker and I were locked<br />
at the hip”, remembers Mary Lynn Roper. “Parker was not shy to tell me<br />
when she thought our product was off the mark or that we were getting<br />
kicked by the competition. Parker cares about people, cares about her<br />
community, cares about informing the public, and her work is truly<br />
outstanding. Parker was a pleasure to work with, producing award winning,<br />
thoughtful and important marketing campaigns.”<br />
Although Parker left broadcasting a few times for jobs in public service, including 4 years<br />
of consensus work for non-profit New Mexico First, she always returned. Broadcasting touches<br />
what is most important to her, helping people get information and offering them a way to help or get help<br />
when needed. “I’ve never met a more intuitive person than Parker. She knows what our community needs, when they need it. And she<br />
follows through 100%” notes Michelle Donaldson, Vice President & General Manager at KOB 4.<br />
Among the major projects Parker Is most proud of is the launch and success of “KOATS for KIDS” which is<br />
still collecting warm clothes for needy children & a viewer-centric campaign to change DWI laws.<br />
“Parker's passion is what makes her successful. As Creative Services Director, Parker does not see each<br />
station project or initiative as something to just cross off the list. Instead, she views each project as an<br />
opportunity to improve our world. Parker has worked at every major network affiliate in the Albuquerque<br />
market. It is safe to say that Parker's fingerprints are on every station's success”, notes KOB news director,<br />
Tim Maestas.<br />
Outside of work, Parker and long-time partner Jeff are dedicated “critter” rescuers, counting dogs, cats,<br />
deer, horses, birds, turtles , frogs and insects among the species they’ve helped or homed.<br />

INDUCTEE<br />
BILL ANDERSON<br />
<br />
In 1979 when a marketing internship during college in Milwaukee<br />
at WITI–TV turned into a job offer, Bill Anderson started his<br />
journey along an incredible career in the industry. From floor<br />
crew to news and production manager to director of<br />
promotion and operations and Station Marketing and<br />
Operations Manager, Bill learned the full spectrum of<br />
television station jobs at WQOW in Eau Claire, KCRG in<br />
Cedar Rapids and WGGB in Springfield Massachusetts.<br />
These station assignments cemented a career-long<br />
appreciation for the importance of ideas and determination<br />
over market limitations.<br />
On the way to becoming a GM, Bill won an <strong>Emmy</strong> ® in 1993<br />
when he created Flood Aid: Broadcast Across America for the<br />
American Red Cross, a National Telethon with 255 TV stations<br />
coast-to-coast agreeing to simulcast this program for the benefit<br />
of those ruined by the great Iowa floods that year. In just 11 days Bill<br />
enlisted the help of competitors and convinced NBC to lend Willard<br />
Scott, ABC to send Spencer Christian and CBS to provide actorcomedian<br />
Jay Thomas. Barry Manilow got involved with a song, and the<br />
NAB urged all its members to air it. In the end, Flood Aid raised $8.5M in<br />
one night and earned the distinction of being both the largest TV network in<br />
history but also one of the largest single-event Red Cross fundraisers.<br />
For Bill personally, Flood Aid provided a glimpse of the power of Local TV to do good, and<br />
inspired a desire to become a GM who harnesses the talents of others to do well and to do good<br />
with a public license. He soon got his first GM posting in Tallahassee, FL at WTWC-TV and from there to WGME, Portland finally<br />
landing at KRQE in Albuquerque in 1999. Since then he has expanded the operation into a four Station “Quad” configuration<br />
which includes KRQE (CBS), FOXNM as well as KWBQ and KASY all known as KRQE Media. <br />
Bill has always remembered those lessons from early in his career and focused on the community<br />
and supporting/encouraging individuals and their talents. His involvement in our region has<br />
included roles on the board of the Muscular Dystrophy Association, the March of Dimes, United Way<br />
Mission Families and he has been named New Mexico Broadcaster GM of the Year. Bill takes a<br />
personal interest in helping others and perhaps no better example is when he mentored and then<br />
hired a man transitioning back to society after a decade in the New Mexico state prison system. He<br />
did the same for a homeless man in the area.<br />
Bill’s partner and wife, Debbie have been together 42 years and raised three children and enjoy 5<br />
grandchildren.<br />

EDWARD AYALA<br />
Edward Ayala grew up in a small farming community in<br />
the Arizona/Sonora Mexico border. The son of<br />
migrant farm workers, Edward learned to till the land<br />
and irrigate crops at the age of 10. When his parents<br />
became United States citizens they opened an auto<br />
repair shop which would change Edward’s world<br />
and career path. At 12, Edward met a photographer<br />
from a local television station at that repair shop.<br />
What started as a hello ended up with him holding<br />
a TV camera on his shoulder and seeing a whole<br />
new world through the viewfinder of that camera.<br />
This was the beginning of Edward’s storytelling<br />
career.<br />
Edward started his career in television at the age of 15<br />
at KYMA in Yuma, Arizona as a part-time production tape<br />
operator. He went on to become a Technical Director and<br />
Director of the evening newscasts. At age 18 he was<br />
promoted to Production Manager leading the Production and<br />
Creative Services staff. At the age of 20 Edward moved to<br />
Tucson, AZ, working as a Photojournalist at KOLD and Chief<br />
Photographer at KGUN. He was recruited to the Phoenix market by<br />
KNXV as a Photojournalist then promoted to investigative and special<br />
projects. He is currently an Investigative Producer/Photojournalist at KPHO/KTVK.<br />
Edward is a recipient of several <strong>Rocky</strong> <strong>Mountain</strong> Southwest Chapter of the National<br />
Academy of Television Arts and Sciences <strong>Emmy</strong> ® Awards. As well as multiple Edward R.<br />
Murrow awards, and an Alfred I DuPont award.<br />
In 2016 Edward joined the Walter Cronkite School of Journalism and Mass<br />
Communication at Arizona State University where he is a highly regarded adjunct<br />
professor teaching videography and editing. He has taught and mentored hundreds of<br />
students who are now working Journalists in newsrooms across the country, including<br />
Phoenix.<br />

INDUCTEE<br />
GILBERT PARRA<br />
<br />
A long time ago Gilbert “Gibby” Parra’s mother told him 'If you love<br />
what you do, then you'll never work a day in your life.' and after 34<br />
years in broadcasting, Gibby still doesn’t feel like it’s work. Not that<br />
he hasn’t been busy.<br />
From his first job, at the age of 17, at a Yuma television station, to<br />
over 25 years at KTVK in Phoenix, he has continued to be an<br />
asset to the television community. Gibby has shot and edited<br />
stories across Arizona, then above it, establishing himself as the<br />
go-to helicopter photographer. Then one day, after years<br />
behind the camera, he had the opportunity to move in front of<br />
it, and the truth be told, he was just a born storyteller. <br />
Gibby is a serious reporter who can quickly turn a live report on a<br />
difficult situation with integrity and professionalism, but he is also<br />
a reporter who can take a human interest story and brighten the<br />
day for all who are watching. In fact he is at his best when he has the<br />
opportunity to interact with people in the story. His ability to elicit an<br />
emotional reaction from the person he is interviewing and translate<br />
that emotional feeling to the viewer is a unique connection not many<br />
journalists have been able to achieve. <br />
John Warren wrote,“As an assignment editor at TV3 I had the opportunity to<br />
watch Gibby work daily and was impressed from the beginning with his work ethic<br />
and desire to experience all aspects of television news. As a photojournalist and video<br />
editor Gibby had a knack for storytelling and has always tried to push himself to do more.”<br />
Now, as Good Morning Arizona’s Chief Photographer, Gibby supervises about 10 news<br />
photographers every morning, while still working in the field every day, on both sides of the camera. As technology has evolved over the<br />
years, so has Gibby’s knowledge, whether it’s cameras, editing, flying drones or new computer skills he loves being the first to master the<br />
latest thing, and then sharing it with his colleagues. On the street, Gibby is recognized by many people in<br />
the community and has been an excellent ambassador for the television industry throughout his career.<br />
Even with his busy schedule, Gibby has never forgotten his roots, hometown or the people who helped<br />
him along the way. Every year he brings journalism students from his high school in Yuma to tour the<br />
AZfamily studios and encourages them to work hard and become the best version of themselves. He is the<br />
first to volunteer to speak at schools and every week he produces his church’s Sunday service so it can be<br />
viewed on TV and has done so for over a dozen years. Gibby also enjoys family time with his wife, Davina,<br />
their children and grandchildren.<br />
While Gibby is truly living his dream job, the NATAS Silver Circle might have been beyond those dreams<br />
when he started out in Yuma all those years ago, so he is humbled and honored to be included in the <strong>2022</strong><br />
class of Silver Circle inductees.<br />

JOSE TEPOSTE<br />
Jose “Big Joe” Teposte is a fixture in the<br />
Yuma television scene. A native of that<br />
southern Arizona city, Jose began his<br />
broadcasting journey at the local NBC<br />
affiliate right after high school. In his 25 +<br />
years at KYMA, Jose has held a dozen<br />
different jobs from Floor Director to<br />
Photographer to News Operations<br />
Manager, but his biggest contribution<br />
to broadcasting may be the people he<br />
has helped along the way.<br />
Jose’s nomination was filled with<br />
accolades about his mentoring, both<br />
seeking the right mentor and being one to<br />
others. His success as a newsroom leader<br />
has positioned him as one of the most<br />
sought-after mentors for journalists. Many<br />
careers were launched and flourished because<br />
he took the time and interest to guide young<br />
broadcasters along the right path, but Jose’s desire<br />
to give back extends beyond his journalistic ethos.<br />
Because of his strong roots in the community he created<br />
the Dezert Syndicate Car and Bike Club in 2018. The club<br />
brings together members with an interest in philanthropic work to<br />
help those who need a helping hand. As a founder of this organization, he<br />
has facilitated the development of food pantries in neighborhoods that face food<br />
insecurity and coordinated efforts to raise funds, gather supplies, and bring awareness<br />
to social issues within Yuma County. Jose is always willing to pitch in for the good of the<br />
community regardless of the mission.<br />
His philosophy has remained the same since the day he first looked through a<br />
viewfinder, community is everything. He is a trailblazer, both as a journalist and as a role<br />
model for young professionals. His passion for leadership, commitment to the<br />
professional development of others and focus on providing high-quality talent make<br />
him a perfect addition to the Silver Circle.<br />

AL McCOY<br />
INDUCTEE<br />
<br />
Dubbed the dean of NBA play-by-play and<br />
now in his 50th season as the “Voice of the<br />
Suns,” Al McCoy holds the NBA’s longest<br />
consecutive run as a team broadcaster. He<br />
first hit the air during a 1972 preseason<br />
game and is now an indelible part of the<br />
Suns brand. From “Shazam” to “Zing Go<br />
the Strings” to “Heartbreak Hotel,”<br />
McCoy has cultivated an unparalleled<br />
style that fans love. Just last year, Phoenix<br />
Magazine readers named McCoy the<br />
best play-by-play announcer for the 23rd<br />
consecutive time.<br />
His list of awards is long: in 2017, he was<br />
inducted into the Phoenix Suns Ring of<br />
Honor. He received the 18th Annual Curt<br />
Gowdy Media Award from the Naismith<br />
Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame, was honored<br />
by the Suns with the dedication of the Al McCoy<br />
Media Center, received a Silver Circle Award from<br />
the Arizona chapter of the National Academy of<br />
Television Arts & Sciences and a Lifetime Achievement<br />
Award from the House of Broadcasting. He is also the first<br />
play-by-play announcer to be inducted into the Arizona<br />
Broadcasters Association Hall of Fame.<br />
<br />
<br />
A native of Iowa, McCoy played basketball and admired legendary sports broadcasters<br />
growing up. As fate would have it, he is one himself now, having done play by play for<br />
many Arizona teams, including the Phoenix Giants, Phoenix Roadrunners, ASU football<br />
and basketball, Arizona Diamondbacks and the Phoenix Mercury. <br />
In his spare time, Al is an accomplished jazz pianist and culinary critic scouting<br />
gourmet restaurants around the league. He and his beloved wife Georgia, a Valley<br />
artist who passed away in 2012, have three sons: Mike, and twins Jay and Jerry.<br />
