The man had no off switch! 😆

Steve Howard is not on social media, but I reached out to him with your question. Here's his response: "I did not catalogue and save very much from the PM days. I think I might still have one of the old posters we placed around Washington. Frankly, the only reason I saved the Greaseman videos was . . . because I acted in them. PM was a nation-wide program, where about 50-75 local affiliates either created content or ran content from among several pieces sent from the PM main offices. That content (on what we called the “National Reel”) was delivered each week to affiliates. I do not remember the piece detailed in your email but I strongly suspect it was off the “National Reel” that evening. We simply didn’t have the budget nor manpower to produce such a piece. I headed up the program for WTOP as Producer/Director for about 5 years. We had to provide each week, about 110 minutes of material gathered from the “National Reel” and supplemented by about 10 “pieces” we produced locally. So, in addition to the fact that we did not preserve pieces or complete shows, we had no reason to catalogue anything on the National Reel as it was provided to us. I do not know if the National Office (which I believe was in Boston) catalogued things semi- or permanently. And, regardless, I believe those folks folded the tent on the show in the late 80’s so any material from those days on their end is probably long gone. S. Howard"

@@SteveOlsen Thanks so much for contacting Steve Howard. Greatly Appreciated! I am told the Grease 2 Behind the Scenes segment from PM Magazine in 1982 must have been from the Los Angeles station KTTV. I'm going to see who I can contact who worked at the station during that time plus I will be sure to enquire about the National Office that Steve says might have been in Boston. Really great to get the detailed response from Steve for Media Archive Purposes. Much Thanks to the both of you!

Jacksonville FL. ❤d him!
