Indiana Broadcast History Archive

Mike Conway

IU Media School

Mike Conway has been involved in broadcasting for more than 45 years. He started in student radio at Indiana University and worked in broadcast news for 20 years. He then changed his career to research and teaching, as a media historian and journalism professor at Indiana University. Conway and Josh Bennett started the Indiana Broadcast History Archive (IBHA) in 2019.

In 2023, Anne Ryder interviewed Mike Conway for the IBHA. You can watch the full interview here.

Education

Mike Conway was born and grew up in Terre Haute, IN. He got involved in journalism at Terre Haute South Vigo High School and then attended the Indiana High School Journalism Institute.

He came to Indiana University and got involved in the college radio station, WIUS (now WIUX). He spent all four years of college at WIUS, serving as news director, disc jockey, and various other roles.

He studied under legendary IU Broadcast News Professor Dr. Richard Yoakam.

Conway worked for Margaret Joseph at WFIU radio, the NPR affiliate in Bloomington. As a WFIU News Assistant, he covered stories and produced newscasts.

Television Career

Conway began his television career in college when Ken Beckley put in a good word for him with News Director Betty Chadwick at WTHI-TV in his hometown of Terre Haute.

He started at WTHI-TV as an intern and was later hired as a reporter/photojournalist. During his senior year at IU, Conway became weekend sports anchor at WTHI-TV as well as producing and anchoring WTHI radio newscasts.  During the week, he worked for both WFIU & WIUS while going to school.

On-Air Career

After college, Conway moved to Traverse City, MI to work for WGTU/WGTQ, TV 29&8, the ABC affiliate for Northern Lower Michigan. He worked as a reporter, photojournalist, anchor, and producer.

The next year, he moved to WKEF-TV, the NBC affiliate in Dayton, Ohio. At that station he worked as a reporter, anchor, and producer.

Conway, along with photojournalist Richard Penner, won an Emmy Award for their heart-breaking coverage of a Centerville, OH classroom watching live as the Shuttle Challenger exploded in 1986.  They had been invited to watch the launch from the classroom of one of the semi-finalists for the “Teacher in Space” contest.

Video Storytelling

In 1986, Conway attended the National Press Photographers Association News Video Workshop in Norman, Oklahoma. At the workshop, he met legendary TV storyteller Larry Hatteberg. Conway had first seen Hatteberg's work in Professor Yoakam's class at Indiana University as an example of powerful storytelling.

The next year, Hatteberg hired Conway to open and run a newsroom in Hutchinson, KS, for KAKE-TV, where Conway worked as reporter and photojournalist.

Under Hatteberg and the other KAKE-TV photojournalists’ guidance, Conway developed his video storytelling skills. In addition to running the bureau, he also developed a weekly feature on interesting people in the area, called “There’s No Place Like Kansas.”

News Management

For the second half of his television career, Conway moved behind the camera to work first as a newscast producer, then in management roles. He spent a few years at WNEM-TV, then the NBC affiliate in Saginaw, Michigan.

He moved back to Traverse City, MI as News Director of WPBN/WTOM-TV, TV7&4, the NBC affiliate for Northern Lower Michigan. During his three years at the station, he hired beginning journalists who have gone on to long, successful careers, including Dana Jacobson, Ray Cortopassi, Chuck Garfien, and Scott Hanson.

 Conway’s final stop in television news was as News Director for WICU-TV, the NBC affiliate in Erie, PA. During his time there, he helped launch a newscast on their Fox affiliate, WFXP-TV.

Research and Teaching

In 1999, Conway moved to Austin, TX to enroll in the graduate journalism program at the University of Texas at Austin. He earned his Master’s Degree & Ph.D. while studying broadcast history. He also taught and worked with the student newscast.

After graduation, Conway moved back to Bloomington as a research professor for the former IU School of Journalism.

He conducted more than 15 video oral history interviews (including Walter Cronkite, Don Hewitt, Shirley & Joe Wershba) for his first book, The Origins of Television News in America: The Visualizers of CBS in the 1940s.

His next book, Contested Ground: “The Tunnel” and the Struggle over Television News in Cold War America won both the American Journalism Historians Association (AJHA) Book Award and the Library of American Broadcasting Foundation Broadcast Historian Award.

He is a long-standing member of the American Journalism Historians Association and served as its president in 2022-2023.

Indiana Broadcast History Archive

After two decades of working in archives, interviewing journalists, and writing about broadcast news history, Conway decided to concentrate on a mostly-untouched area: the history of local broadcasting.  Unfortunately, not much has been saved, which makes it very hard to provide an accurate historic account of how we relied on our local radio and television stations, especially in the 20th Century.

In 2019, Conway and IU Media School Archivist Josh Bennett launched their effort to not only save Indiana radio and TV history, but also to tell stories about that history and get current IU Media School students involved.  Indiana University awarded the IBHA a $25,000 Public Humanities grant to get the archive started and launch the IBHA website. Currently, the IBHA is relying on donations and volunteer help to grow the archive and tell stories of our state’s broadcast history.

IU Media School student Lauren Ulrich presents her research on Jack Hanes and WTHI-TV's "Captain Jack" show.

Indiana University profiled the work of the IBHA in 2023.
