John Callaway Receives Honorary Degree At John Marshall Commencement

The John Marshall Law School presented an honorary degree to John Callaway, senior correspondent and host of WTTW-TV's "Chicago Tonight" program, during its Jan. 18 commencement ceremonies.

The law school presented J.D. degrees to 92 graduates and LL.M. degrees to 22 graduates at McCormick Place South. Callaway delivered the commencement address.

Callaway, an award-winning journalist, began his career in 1956 as a police reporter for the City News Bureau of Chicago. He later went to work for CBS where he had a successful 17-year career developing all-news radio.

His first job with CBS was news director at WBBM-Radio in Chicago, where he helped transform the station to its all-news format. Callaway later served as vice president for CBS-Radio in New York, in charge of the development of CBS' all-news radio stations across the country.

Callaway has been with WTTW-TV since 1974, serving as news director and later becoming the host of the station's first nightly news program, "The Public Newscenter." He also hosted the station's on-the-road town meeting program series "Chicago Feedback" before becoming the host of "Chicago Tonight."

Several of his productions have aired on PBS, including "Campaigning on Cue," "Inside Television," and the "John Callaway Interviews" series, featuring biographical portraits of John Updike, Helen Hayes, Aaron Copland, John Cheever and Jonas Salk.

Callaway has received more than 70 awards for his work, including a Peabody Award and seven EMMY Awards.

He helped found, and was director of, the William Benton Fellowships in Broadcast Journalism at the University of Chicago, and his collection of essays, The Thing of It Is, has become a best-seller.
