David Sarnoff: Father of Broadcasting
His father was a Jewish painter in a shetel of Uzlian in Russia. He was born to Abraham. Abraham came to the United States with a large influx of other Russia Jews. He spent four years eating and sleeping with the Talmud. Even though he hated this strict regimen, he said later in life that it served him well in business.
大卫萨诺夫：广播之父
他的父亲是一名犹太画家在俄罗斯的乌兹连。他出生于亚伯拉罕。亚伯拉罕带着大批其他俄罗斯犹太人来到美国。他花了四年时间和犹太法典一起吃饭和睡觉。尽管他讨厌这种严格的养生方式，但后来他说，这对他的生意很有好处。

Sarnoff's health was starting to diminish. In 1968, he came down with shingles. This was a prelude of things to come. Later, he developed an infection. It eventually spread to his nervous system. It slowly ate away his ability to see, speak, or hear. He eventually died on December 12,1971.
Throughout Sarnoff's career, he made a lot of advancements in the world of "broadcasting." His foresight allowed him to plan for the future of radio and television, as well as become the head of one of the largest companies around, RCA.
萨诺夫的健康状况开始下降。1968年，他得了带状疱疹。这是即将到来的事情的前奏。后来，他患上了一种感染。它最终会扩散到他的神经系统。它慢慢地侵蚀了他看、说、听的能力。他最终于1971年12月12日去世。
在萨诺夫的整个职业生涯中，他在“广播”的世界里取得了许多进步。他的远见使他能够规划未来的广播和电视，以及成为最大的公司之一，RCA的负责人。
In WWII, Sarnoff served as communications consultant for General Dwight D. Eisenhower. The title stuck. In the halls of 30 Rockefeller Plaza, he became known as "the General."
Something Sarnoff was working on as well as television was the introduction of color television. In 1954, he announced to the shareholders that color television was to be introduced in a "19" package. This is his final triumph, although it came with many setbacks and frustrations. RCA was being hassled by some other companies over the rights to RCA's color tube. Knowing when to settle, he agreed to add all of RCA's 100 patents on color television to a pool of color patents that any manufacturer could draw from royalty free. This…
Sarnoff's career took off. His next epiphany: the fastest path to profits would be to create national broadcasts by stringing together hundreds of stations, in other words, a network. He formed the National Broadcasting Co. as a subsidiary.
His next idea in where to go with radio was supplying sight with sound. Unfortunately, many years would pass before this came to fruition. Zworykin who patented the iconoscope was destined to be the greatest engineer at RCA.
萨诺夫的事业腾飞了。他的下一个顿悟是: 最快的盈利之路是通过将数百个电台 (换句话说, 一个网络) 串在一起, 来创建国家广播。他成立了国家广播公司作为子公司。
他的下一个想法是用收音机去哪里, 为视力提供声音。不幸的是, 在这一目标取得成果之前, 很多年都会过去。获得偶像镜专利的兹沃里金注定要成为 RCA 最伟大的工程师。
Marconi wanted to buy what was then the most powerful generator of radio waves. Foreign companies already dominated the submarine wire industry. It was through this problem that the Radio Corporation of America was formed by General Electric to absorb Marconi's U.S asset and Sarnoff was made the commercial manager of "RCA'.
Sarnoff had it all figured out: for RCA to sell radios, it had to have programming music, news, and sports. On July 2, 1921, he arranged the broadcast of the Jack Dempsey-Georges Carpentier prizefight (great ratings in the male demos), which was a watershed event.
马可尼想要买当时最强大的无线电波发生器。外国公司已经主导了海底电线行业。正是通过这个问题，通用电气成立了美国无线电公司来吸收马可尼的电报。萨尔诺夫被任命为“RCA”的商业经理。
Sarnoff把这一切都弄明白了:RCA要想销售收音机，就必须有音乐、新闻和体育节目。1921年7月2日，他安排了杰克·邓普西-乔治·卡彭蒂尔职业拳击赛(在男性观众中收视率很高)的播出，这是一个分水岭事件。
