Jack Clark (television personality)
Jack Leslie Clark〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=imDb entry )〕 (November 25, 1925 – July 21, 1988) was an American television game show host and announcer. He is best known for hosting ''The Cross-Wits'', and as an offstage announcer for ''Wheel of Fortune''. On the latter, he succeeded original announcer Charlie O'Donnell and held the role from 1980 until his death in 1988.
==Early career==
When Clark was a student at University of California, Berkeley (UC Berkeley), he began his career as a substitute radio announcer for radio station KROW in Oakland, California. After graduating from UC Berkeley, he moved to New York City, and first worked as a game show announcer for ''Password'' (where, when the word was flashed on the screen, he would whisper from offstage, "the password is..."; he also occasionally substituted for host Allen Ludden). From there, he went on to host ''100 Grand'' (1963) and ''Dealer's Choice'' from 1974 to 1975 (replacing Bob Hastings). Later, Clark hosted ''The Cross-Wits'' from 1975 until 1980, where he was noted for his rapport with the celebrities and contestants. Clark later went on to announce for several other game shows, including ''Split Second'' (1972–1975), ''Tattletales'' (1974), ''Three for the Money'' (1975), ''Second Chance'' (1977), and some Hollywood-originated episodes of ''The $10,000 Pyramid''. Earlier in 1967, Clark also did some commercials for Winston cigarettes in Super King (100 MM ) size.
Clark also hosted a number of pilot episodes that never passed that stage. Among these were ''Second Guessers'', ''The $10,000 Sweep'', and a 1985 proposed revival of ''Now You See It'' (later sold in 1989). He was also the announcer on another pilot, ''Monday Night Quarterback''. Clark did many of these pilots "on spec" as favors to their producers.
During his tenure with ''The Cross-Wits'', Clark also hosted ''Say Powwww'' (1979). This was a live, interactive game series on Metromedia stations in California, directed by Sidney M. Cohen.
