This past June, two members of UCLA's Athletic Video department earned a 2011 Telly Award for their hard work on John Wooden documentary.
Ken Norris, longtime director of the athletic video department, and Joe Plonsky, earned a Bronze Telly in the category TV for Documentary for their production of "In His Words." Norris (producer) and Plonsky (editor) produced the retrospective on legendary icon John Wooden that was shown at the conclusion of the memorial service for Coach Wooden on June 26, 2010. The documentary included numerous clips of interviews of Coach Wooden, interspersed with photos that traced his life from start to finish.
