Oral Histories LIVE! Featuring George Dorman

George Dorman grew up in Castlewood, South Dakota, (population 500) where his dad ran a weekly newspaper for 38 years. He graduated from South Dakota State University with a degree in Printing and Journalism. Upon graduation, Dorman was drafted into the Army and spent 12-1/2 months in South Korea…first in field artillery and then as a reporter/photographer for the 2nd Infantry Division newspaper and as a weekend radio newscaster on the American Forces Korea Network. After his discharge, he worked at KSFY-TV in Sioux Falls for 3-1/2 years as a news reporter and weekend sports anchor and later as assistant news director.
Dorman came to Cedar Rapids in 1978 as the morning news anchor and general assignment reporter for KCRG-TV9. In 1981 he became news director of KCRG-AM 1600. His position was eliminated in late 1985. Dorman landed at KCCK in early 1986 and the rest is history.
