A short biography: A graduate of Lehigh University, author Jeffrey L Diamond began his career in the early 1970s at ABC News where he worked at “Special Events, Weekend News, and World News Tonight,” before moving to the weekly news magazine, “20/20.” During his career, he created a variety of short story pieces in addition to collaborating with some of the biggest names in the business—anchors Barbara Walters, Charles Gibson, and Stone Phillips, and correspondents Tom Jarrel, Lynn Sherr, and Deborah Roberts. After taking a break from storytelling in 1991, Mr. Diamond embarked on a decades-long journey as an executive producer, managing broadcast, cable, and syndicated programming. He created “Dateline NBC” in the early 1990s, ran “Martha Stewart Living Television” in the mid-1990s, and launched “Judith Regan Television” in the late 1990s.
