His experience includes every major global sport, including Super Bowls, the Munich Olympics, Horse Racings Triple Crown, and hundreds of others spanning major college sports, tennis, golf, and iconic international Championships. From Muhammad Ali to Arnold Palmer to Martina Navratilova to Brooks Robinson to Johnny Unitas to Bob Cousy, sports biggest stars were his standard fare.</p><p>And along the way he supervised and teamed with the greatest collection of on-camera sports announcers in the history of sports television. His collection of announce talent included Pat Summerall, Brent Musburger, Dick Enberg, Bob Costas, Jack Whitaker, John Madden, Curt Gowdy, Chris Schenkel, Jack Buck, Jim McKay, Bryant and Greg Gumbel, Chris Evert, Jayne Chastain, Al Michaels, Al and Frank McGuire, and Don Meredith, among numerous others.</p><p>His experience producing and directing "Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous" was equally remarkable, with the greatest movie stars, television personalities, and celebrities filling the screen each week under his careful and creative direction.</p><p>"Champagne Wishes and Caviar Dreams, The Television Journey of a Lifetime" is a story filled with nostalgia that takes readers behind-the-scenes of the dynamic and exciting television industry. It encompasses tips for success and a global panorama of sports greatest venues.</p><p>And it all was anchored by a mix of good fortune and great timing. "I snuck in the back door of a business I otherwise had no place being," Cross would say.</p><p>His professional journey is a roadmap for building and navigating a wholly unique television career and his story is one that everyone will enjoy reading.</p>...(*_*)9781977282903_<p>Jim Crosss name should never have been in lights.
