Edward R. Murrow KBE, American broadcast journalist and war correspondent (April 25, 1908 - April 27, 1965) was born Egbert Roscoe Murrowat Polec at Creek, near Greensboro, in Guilford County, North Carolina. He first gained prominence in the years before and during World War II with a series of live radio broadcasts from Europe for the news division of the Columbia Broadcasting System (CBS). He recruited and worked closely with a team of war correspondents who came to be known as the Murrow Boys, which included William L. Shirer, Eric Sevareid, Charles Collingwood, Howard K. Smith, Richard C. Hottelet and others. A pioneer of radio and television news broadcasting, Murrow produced a series of reports on his television program See It Now which helped lead to the censure of Senator Joseph McCarthy. He is considered one of journalism's greatest figures generally and broadcast journalism particularly, noted for his honesty and integrity in delivering the news.
