Michael Harris, Director
Michael Harris was raised in Pennsylvania but came to Hawai‘i shortly after graduating from high school in 1979 to attend the University of Hawai‘i. In 1983, Michael landed a job at NBC affiliate KHON where he worked as a grip and cameraman and eventually, as a director. After 21 years with KHON, Harris was hired as the Vice President of Production at PBS Hawaii. While at PBS, he had the opportunity to work on the “Na Mele” series, which showcased Hawai‘i’s most acclaimed musicians, including Hapa, Brother Nolan, Jimmy Borges, Keola Beamer and more. In 1997, Harris left PBS to direct the newly created Sunrise morning newscast for the CBS affiliate, KGMB. A short while later, Sunrise became the number one morning newscast in the market. Harris has been honored with two Emmy awards for Live Multi-Camera Directing and a Mark Twain/AP Award for Broadcast Television Coverage.Episode 1 of Pacific Heartbeat Season Three
