Calkins: For 40 years, WMC-TV’s Jarvis Greer has been choosing 901
WMC-TV sports director Jarvis Greer recently celebrated 40 years at the station. “I was in heaven,” Greer says of when he started at the station. “As a kid who grew up in Memphis, went to Christian Brothers and Memphis State, it was a great time to be there. I got to work with Jack Eaton!” (Photo courtesy of Kontji Anthony)
