“THE DAILY SHOW with Jon Stewart ”

I started working for the Daily Show with Jon Stewart in the fall of 1998, just before Jon took over as anchor.  I shot my very first story up in Saskatchewan, Canada, in the middle of nowhere, about a guy who could forcast the weather by fondling pig spleens.  Ah, the glamour.  I moved to New York City in January, '99 and joined the show full-time as a correspondent.  I spent two and half years on the show and am truly proud to have been a part of such a great show with such amazingly talented people. 

I've put two of my field pieces on the website.  One is a regular piece and the other is from the series of stories I did called "Tales of Survival."  It was a parody of Dateline NBC's "Survivor Stories."  Keep in mind that every story I did was with real people and their real stories.  I hope you enjoy them.  I know I certainly did.
