Geist retiring from WVIZ TV

Kent Geist, with Cleveland PBS station WVIZ-Channel 25 for 46 years, is retiring from his full-time job as senior director of development and communications (try getting that on a desktop sign). 

He’ll still show up for special projects and on-air fundraising.

He began at WVIZ on Brookpark Road in 1968 as an 18-year-old high school graduate.
