After graduating he went to the University of Texas at Austin as director of both a four-city instructional television network and the university’s four channel instructional television system.

From Austin, Bill moved to Ohio where he accepted a position at Bowling Green State University’s new television station to become their Director of Instructional Television and Special Projects. Bill then moved to Washington, DC where he started his own communications consulting firm. His clients included trade associations, corporations, and many government agencies including the Army and Navy, the Postal Service, the Departments of Transportation and Housing and Urban Development, the White House, and the Secret Service. He was also asked to take a one-year contract as FEMA’s first Director of News and Information when that agency was first created.
