This is a most historic day in television. On this cold East Coast morning at 7 a.m., in 1952, NBC-TV opened a broadcast with a shot of Dave Garroway looking outside through the ?‘Window on the World?’ in New York City. The program was the first that featured his signature sign-off: hand raised, uttering one word, ?“Peace.?”
The show was developed by Pat Weaver, father of actress Sigourney Weaver. Some four-plus decades later, the popular show continues, coanchored by Matt Lauer and Katie Couric. This is one TV show that stays the same, informing, entertaining and educating while continuing to change to suit the times.

This is Today... on NBC.
