complishments of his father,
Shirley, a prominent sports
columnist in Washington,
D.C., and sister Lynn, who
serves as a senior editor with
Newsweek magazine.
And then, of course, there's
Povich's globe-trotting wife,
Connie Chung, whose nose for
news netted a slot with CBS's
reformatted "West . 57th
Street," which, network of-
ficials hope, will turn the
news magazine into a winner.
While he has taken his turn
as hard-news reporter with
stations in Chicago, Los
Angeles and San Francisco as
well as Washington in an
award-winning career span-
ning some 20 years, Povich
admits that his personality
didn't always travel that well.
"One of the reasons I've
bounced around," says Povich,
"is that I fought every battle
[with bosses] as if it were Ar-
mageddon. That and age have
taught me to go easier on
myself?'
He has fought battles from
an early age. Raised in an Or-
thodox Jewish home, Povich
remembers feeling the heat of
anti-Semitism even as a
youngster. "My father's job
was in a non-Jewish at-
mosphere, which I was expos-
ed to. Because of our family's
high priority on education, I
was sent to prep school where,
as it turned out, there was
only a handful of Jews.
"I would have my Jewish
friends from cheder and then
there were my pre-school
friends — who were WASPs."
He was able to shake off the
sting of anti-Semitism. "I felt
some anti-Semitism from
others at that time. It was
subtle, but I always had the
feeling that, somehow, I was
different from the others" at
prep school.
The differences didn't
bother him. "I thrived on it;
I liked it?' Povich said. "I've
always been proud of my
heritage, and I'm thankful to
my parents for exposing me to
my Jewishness so much."
Povich is proud of what he
calls his program's ability to
break stories before networks
get hold of them. Such was
the case, • he recalls, with a
story on a hospital's reported
mistaken baby swap, when
two coules in Pennsylvania
and Florida last year
discovered that they may
have been given the wrong
babies by a hospital years ago.
The former bad boy of news
is optimistic that there will be
more good news to tell about
"A Current Affair?' We are
moving in the direction of '60
Minutes? " says Povich.
"Now that we've got your
attention, we're going for
your heart." ❑
