studiomprd Posted August 19, 2014 Report Share Posted August 19, 2014 Mr. Pardo was 96; he joined NBC before I was even born! " He began his announcing career at NBC Radio as a war reporter during World War II and remained at the network his entire life.... A member of the Television Academy Hall of Fame, he and Bob Hope are the only people ever awarded a lifetime contract at NBC. He finally retired from NBC in 2004 and considered retiring from SNL too, but Michaels successfully kept him on the show until last season’s finale.
