Of course, we wish that we could all be together in one room tonight, like we always are at the Motor City Casino, but this is a dierent year. Nobody expected 2020 to be like this. e Coronavirus has aected so many, especially here in Michigan. Some of our colleagues in the television industry have been laid o, furloughed or let go--while others are working long hours to bring news and information to our communities every day. We’ve seen stories of hope, heroes and struggles; stories of a 500-year ood with homes and businesses destroyed; and stories of protests, rallies, demon- strations and destruction. All this while trying to stay healthy and safe. You have risked your lives trying to protect our Press Freedoms and showing the community how important your role really is. You have done phenomenal work and that’s why it’s important to celebrate your eorts tonight, even in a virtual setting. I am honored to be your President here in Michigan, but I am more honored to be among those in this great industry. I am humbled by your extraordinary eorts. And, while I wish were all in one room tonight, it does not diminish the achievement of being nominated or winning an Emmy Award this year. Congratulations again to all of the nominees and winners. Your work is shining through. Bob Gould Vice President of Awards Good Evening and welcome!

  • Gregory Woman, 72, Proves Health Is Timeless May 13, 2013
    Gregory woman, 72, proves health is timeless May 13, 2013 Personal trainer and health coach Kelly Fletcher works with 72-year-old Brenda Badish in a workout at the Hamburg Fitness Center while filmmaker Keith Famie shoots footage for a documentary project. Photo by GILLIS BENEDICT/DAILY PRESS & ARGUS Brenda Badish found herself in a desperate situation at a tough age. At age 68, Badish had gained about 100 pounds since her husband’s 1997 death and could no longer function physically on her own. “I couldn’t do anything. I was at a point where I couldn’t even dress myself,” recalled Badish, who lives in Gregory in southwestern Livingston County. “It was either enjoy the daisies or push them,” she added. Badish had two things on her side — family and determination. Over a 26-month period, Badish lost 145 pounds after pairing with a trainer at the Hamburg Fitness Center and adopting a diet that was heavy on fresh food and light on fat and sugar. She started the process at 272 pounds. Badish’s daughter helped mobilize her return to the Hamburg gym, where Badish had been a member since 1999 but hadn’t been since about 2002. Badish competed in a triathlon at age 71, and she continues to compete in triathlons and marathons. Her story will be featured in “The Embrace of Aging: The Female Perspective of Growing Old,” a 13-part documentary series in development by Keith Famie, formerly a Brenda Badish works with personal trainer and health renowned chef in metro Detroit and coach Kelly Fletcher at the Hamburg Fitness Center.
