DAVID O. IVES GONE ALMOST A DECADE BUT NOT FORGOTTEN

DAVID O. IVES 
April 21, 1919-May 16, 2003 


At WGBH-TV 
Channel 2, Boston 

From an editorial in the April 4, 2013, Barnstable Patriot: 


"Do you remember the wonderful old bow-tied Brahmin David O. Ives, who often popped up on Boston’s WGBH Channel 2 in the 1970s to flog donations from viewers? The station executive had a way about him, including a willingness to make a fool of himself by crooning, 'Help keep your station alive, folks/Help keep the wolf from our door/Please send your kind contribution/To Boston 02134.'" 

As the New York Times said in its obituary, David Otis Ives "as head of the public broadcasting station WGBH-Boston helped build it into a national powerhouse for the Public Broadcasting Service...."
