When it comes to death, dying and grieving, it seems that most people do their grieving in private. But what if you are in the public eye? How does grieving affect you then? It can be very complex and very challenging.

For the next few weeks I am going to be talking to some people who are public figures in their communities, most of whom I have known through the years from our time together in the TV biz.

The conversations are quite interesting because the way in which we deal with grief, handle the pain, and process it are all so different and yet if you look back at how you moved through, most all can say it changed us profoundly.

In this episode, popular Dallas TV personality Ron Corning sat down with me to talk about the recent death of his mother, and the horrific death of a dear friend and co-worker.

He says all of it not only made him a better person, but he also feels it made him a better reporter. I think you will be fascinated with our conversation. I know I was.

Ron Corning is the co-host of Morning After on CW33 in Dallas, Texas.  Before Morning After, Ron spent the 8 years at Dallas’s ABC affiliate where he anchored the early morning and midday newscasts, and special events. During his time in Dallas-Fort Worth he has emceed and contributed to more than 250 charitable organizations.  Ron is a broadcaster with 26 years of experience.  He made his way on to the national stage with the WB’s ‘The Daily Buzz’ before moving on to ABC News where he anchored the network’s overnight newscasts, World News Now and World News This Morning, and served as a correspondent for ‘Good Morning America’.
