PhillyCAM lost one of our elders today. 🕯
Trudy Haynes, one of the country's first female reporters and the nation's first black female TV reporter and the nation's 1st African-American TV weather reporter passed on June 7, 2022.
She started reporting in 1963 in Detroit but made her name in Philadelphia starting in 1965 as a reporter for KYW-3. She interviewed tons of celebrities, the movers and shakers, including a few Presidents and even Dr. Martin Luther King (twice). Ms. Haynes has won an Emmy Award as well as two Lifetime Achievement Awards and a Cammy Award.
Trudy’s was here before there was a PhillyCAM.
She was there covering the story of the fight for public access television and testifying in City Council about the need for more diverse voices in local media.
Debbie Rudman, Programming Director, remembers Trudy as the very first producer to deliver a TV program to PhillyCAM way before our studios were built.
💬 “She found us on top of Ciity Hall where the start up office was located and knocked on the door of our little room to hand me a DVD. I have no idea how she found out we were there! I am in awe of her.”
💬 “When we were back in City Council during the 2015 Comcast franchise renegotiations I’ll never forget Trudy saying: "Baby, what do you need me to do,” recalls Executive Director, Gretjen Clausing. “When Trudy gave her testimony, the Council Chamber went quiet. She brought the gravitas and people listened.”
Trudy wanted to see more journalists of color to take up the call and funded the Trudy Haynes Reporting Fellowship where 16 people participated.
Trudy's legacy will only continue! May she rest in power.
