Don Nelson looks back at ABC-13 career
HOUSTON (KTRK) -- He was Houston TV's jack of all trades, master of none. His niche, said a former news director, is that he didn't have a niche.
Don Nelson's done everything at least once.
Thanks to his long running talk show, "Good Morning Houston," and the morning news, Don did just about everything even more than once, from cooking with the world's greatest chefs to collecting their cookbooks.
"I had almost 640 cooks books after 17 years," Nelson said.
"You know I said I had like an r-20 insultation rating in the attic from cook books."
He interviewed the biggest stars, too many to count. He hosted the stations biggest events from Share Your Holidays to the Rodeo Parade and The Power of Houston.
He even traveled the world for the International Festival, riding on elephants and sampling some of the strangest foods.
His favorite event, though, involved his favorite food.
