Synopsis

Penned in the final months of Fred Hickman’s life, this autobiography revisits a trailblazing half-century career. Fred was one of the first faces on the Cable News Network in 1980. With CNN’s Sports Tonight, he became one of America’s first Black sports anchors on national TV. He was also first to host TNT’s Inside the NBA. He later hosted on ESPN, Fox Sports South, and the YES Network.

With help from journalist and friend Harrison Golden, Fred wrote Channeling as an exercise in gratitude. Featured are the challenges that tested this TV legend, the elders who mentored him, the loved ones who lifted him, and the up-and-comers who kept his heart young.

In Fred’s absence, the book’s title has gained deeper meaning. Sports fans, news hounds, and history buffs alike will not only find inspiration in someone who influenced many TV channels over the years. They will have a first-person narrative as accessible and spirited as its author.
