  Jack Ford Profile

Emmy and Peabody Award-winning journalist, respected educator, documentary producer, prominent trial attorney and author, Jack Ford has had a unique and remarkably successful career. Raised by a single parent, his journey has taken him from a small town in New Jersey to Yale University, where he was a scholarship student and three-year starter on the varsity football team, to the Fordham University School of Law, where he helped finance his legal education with winnings from three appearances on the television quiz show "Jeopardy," to courtrooms and classrooms throughout the country, and ultimately to the upper echelons of television journalism.

Currently a host of "Metro Focus" on PBS (WNET-New York) and most recently a CBS News Correspondent for "60 Minutes Sports," he was also the Co-Founder and Chief Anchor of the digital network American Ed TV. Mr. Ford began his television news career in 1984 as a legal analyst with WCBS-TV in New York. In 1991, he was an original anchor at the launch of Court TV. He also appeared in Fred Friendly's award-winning PBS Media and Society broadcasts, serving as Moderator for "That Delicate Balance II: The Bill of Rights."
