Biography
Kim Gabara discovered the world of television in his native Canada, while "rattling around in art school". A part time job at Calgary television station CHCT saw him sweeping the studio floor, and becoming caught up in the "excitement and atmosphere" of TV. Gabara trained up in the camera, sound and editing departments, and soon became one of the youngest presentation directors the station had seen.
“I think the fondest recollection of my work with television was the fact that we were paid to have ideas and to create programmes. ”
