together by
three very talented members of the Sams
family. The name is familiar to
people in the domain business thanks to
industry veteran David Sams (who
was the subject of September 2011 Cover
Story).
Before
he got into this business David had phenomenal
success as a Hollywood TV producer.
He played a key role in launching the
most popular syndicated talk show in
television history with Oprah
Winfrey. He was part of the
legendary team that launched other smash
hits like Wheel of Fortune and Jeopardy!
and he won 9 Emmy Awards
along the way.
Today
I learned that David isn't the only member
of the family with extraordinary
talent. David posted a link to a music video on
his Facebook account this morning
featuring an original song called
"Dear Veteran" that is
marvelously sung by his 13-year-old
daughter Elizabeth, who also
co-wrote the tune with her mother, Renee
Sams. After being both floored
and inspired when Elizabeth sent him
a copy of her song, David put his video
production talents to work stitching
together a stunning collage of scenes
that completed this
very special package. |
