CBS Evening News Anchor Jeff Glor Celebrates The Past And Looks To The Future

Marshall Sella
Man Of The Hour
 At a youthful 42, Jeff Glor, the new anchor of CBS Evening News with Jeff Glor, is a man of natural fluency: fluency in sports, in literature, in politics, and in history—in all the profuse realms of his complicated terrain. He also, importantly, possesses the innate ability to stand out in a shot: to be at once a part of, and yet in control of and separate from, a scene he is covering. His Manhattan office well reflects his penchant for surprise. Among its credential photos of Glor—as well as of Walter Cronkite, Edward R. Murrow, Eric Sevareid, and an easygoing Jack Kennedy—is a prominently, if accidentally, displayed electric toothbrush that has already come in handy more than a few times in his new post at CBS.

Glor’s path to the permanent weekday anchor chair, to which he succeeded in December, was framed to a virtually surreal degree in Americana: He was born in Buffalo, New York, and grew up in the neighboring town of Tonawanda. At Syracuse University, he pursued a double major of economics and journalism and was awarded the Henry J. Wolff Prize, which is bestowed upon the student judged “the most proficient in journalism.” Glor and his wife, Nicole, a former college cheerleader, have two children: 2 ½-year-old Victoria and 8-year-old Jack.

Yet Glor, in his night-to-night analysis of the tastes and strivings of the TV generation, declines to restrict himself solely to the everyman realm. Even a brief conversation with the anchor soon happens upon his literary interests, which a glimpse of his office will confirm. Within easy reach of his desk sit some of his preferred recent titles: Ranger Games, by Ben Blum; A Legacy of Spies, by John le Carré; Killers of the Flower Moon, by David Grann; and Artemis, by Andy Weir.
