Frank Gifford
Named to the Pro Football Hall of Fame in recognition of his years as a record-setting player, Gifford began his illustrious broadcasting career in 1957, while still an active player with the NFL’s New York Giants. Gifford has hosted ABC’s Wide World of Sports, anchored seven Olympic Games and five Super Bowls, and -- for over 25 years --has served as a vital member of ABC’s award-winning NFL Monday Night Football broadcast team.
In addition to writing several magazine articles on sports and sportscasting, Gifford is the author of several successful books, including "Gifford on Courage" -- a book not about Gifford, but about ten of the most courageous athletes he knows. Last fall, Random House published another Gifford book, "The Whole Ten Yards."
