Kevin Beining (Class of '93)
Assistant Chief Photographer

   I got my first glimpse into the world of Television my junior year of high school in John's class. At that time, we aired the Coaches Corner show and also replays of football and basketball games on channel 2 of the local cable...but I think it was the class projects that really sparked my interest the most. I enjoyed going out and playing with the cameras and seeing what kinds of crazy things I could do. Little did I know that one day I would be paid to do just that…well kind of.

   Shortly after I graduated college, I took a job at the ABC station in Toledo, Ohio and I have been here ever since. In my 9 plus years, this job has taken me places I never imagined….I did reports next to the rubble of the World Trade Center in New York just over a week after the terrorist attacks…I was in Texas right after Hurricane Katrina, and during Hurricane Rita…I’ve seen a president be sworn into office and then watched a Pope say mass…I’ve also gotten to cover the Rose Bowl and the Super Bowl and even chased a runaway train. Even when the stories are not as exciting as these…I still get to meet interesting people every day and tell their stories to our viewers. That is why I love my job…I never know who I am going to meet or what story is around the next corner.
