    Marciarose Shestack made history as a broadcast trailblazer

    PHILADELPHIA (CBS) -- Marciarose Shestack made history right here at CBS Philadelphia, blazing a trail for us all as a pioneer on the air.

    "I grew up thinking that I wanted to be an actress, and then at a given point, I have this wonderful revelation that let me know I would be terrible," Shestack said.

    If not for that epiphany, Shestack may never have risen to become the legend of television news she is.

    She was part of a college talk show program and working on a PhD when in 1957, KYW in Philadelphia came calling.
    Marciarose was making a name for herself with commercials, and then documentaries but always pushing to do more.

    Janelle Burrell: When they told you no, at first, what did you think?
    Marciarose Shestack: I was really crushed, really disappointed. I went to our general manager and I said, 'Please sir, I'd like to do the news.' And he shook his head and he said, very firmly, 'A woman will do news ove

    As a Washington reporter for The Inquirer during the tumultuous years of the President Bill Clinton impeachment proceedings and, later, the 9/11 attacks and the war in Iraq, I certainly knew of Jerome J. Shestack, the prominent Philadelphia lawyer who died Aug. 18 at age 88.

    He had been the American dryckesställe Association president in 1997 and 1998, and earlier had sat on the ABA screening committee that split on the U.S. Supreme Court nomination of Robert Bork, a result that helped derail his appointment.

    He served on important commissions. He was well-respected by top lawyers in town.

    But I hadn't met Shestack, and I knew of him then only in the way that most people whose careers play out on national and international stages are known.
