| Joe Carvajal, a Federal government TV documentary film-maker, was a long-time member of the Academy of Television Arts and Sciences and for one season served as the Federal government representative on the Emmy Awards Nominating Committee. With the TV networks representatives on the Committee pushing for their own shows, the Federal and the PBS (Public Broadcasting Service) representatives tended to be the two "tie breaker" votes at many a lively luncheon meeting of that Committee. |
