He last anchored at KYW-TV beginning in 2003 when he fronted the late newscasts, but soon only anchored the 4 p.m. news. Howard's television career began at WFMJ-TV in Youngstown, Ohio. One of Howard's duties was hosting a late afternoon movie program called Showtime. While the program initially followed a mainstream movie format, during the Monster Craze of the 1960s, the program almost exclusively featured horror and sci-fi movies Monday through Friday. As host, Howard did not appear as a horror host character but as himself. He moved to New York City in 1967 as one of the original members of WNEW-TV's Ten O'Clock News team. After a brief reporting stint at WPRI-TV in Providence, Rhode Island, Howard returned to New York as a reporter for WPIX in 1968, staying there until 1970 when he took a job as press secretary to Howard J. Samuels during his unsuccessful run for Governor of New York;[1] he later returned to WPIX as a political reporter. Howard moved to Hartford, Connecticut to work for WFSB as a reporter and weekend anchor, and then arrived in Philadelphia in 1977 to become the 5:30 p.m. co-anchor of WPVI's Action News;[2] the newscast would expand to an hour in 1981. Howard would work at Action News alongside the late Jim O'Brien and later forming a long-running partnership with Lisa Thomas-Laury beginning in 1983. Then in late 2002, he suddenly left after it was announced that he was being hired at KYW-TV to replace Larry Kane on the 11 P.M. newscast for a rumored $800,000 a year. In addition to his anchoring duties, Howard also hosted the locally produced public affairs program Newsmakers, which focuses on a variety of political issues, both local and national, and airs on KYW-TV on Sunday mornings.[3] He retired from anchoring on November 30, 2007, ending a broadcasting career that began at WPIC 790 am in his hometown of Sharon, Pennsylvania.[4] Notes1. ^ {{dead link|date=June 2017 |bot=InternetArchiveBot |fix-attempted=yes }} {{s-start}}{{s-media}}{{succession box2. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.geocities.com/broadcastpioneers/howard.html |title=Archived copy |accessdate=2006-08-12 |deadurl=bot: unknown |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20050215013806/http://www.geocities.com/broadcastpioneers/howard.html |archivedate=February 15, 2005 |df= }} 3. ^Broadcast Pioneers of Philadelphia.{{Retrieved | accessdate=2010-12-28}} 4. ^{{cite web |url= http://www.philly.com/philly/blogs/phillygossip/Marc_Howard_Signs_Off_For_Good.html|title= Marc Howard Signs Off For Good|author= Dan Gross|date= November 25, 2007|work= |publisher= www.philly.com|accessdate=December 28, 2010}} | before=Larry Kane | title=CBS 3 6pm & 11pm Eyewitness news anchor | years=2003 | after=Larry Mendte & Alycia Lane }}{{s-end}}{{authority control}}{{DEFAULTSORT:Howard, Marc}} 6 : 1937 births|Television anchors from Philadelphia|Philadelphia television reporters|Living people|People from Mercer County, Pennsylvania|Journalists from Pennsylvania |
