The BBA Remembers Former WIVB-TV Photographer Steve Beauchamp
The BBA is sad to announce the passing of former photographer Steve Beauchamp after a long battle with cancer.
Steve worked at Channel 4 from 1984 through 2004. He covered many big stories, including the 9/11 attacks on New York City, and the O.J. Simpson trial.
Steve was among the second generation of photographers who helped define a changing newsroom in the early days when video tape replaced film. He was respected for his news and leadership skills in the field.
“Steve had a passion for the issues of the day and wasn’t afraid to express his opinions to reporters during the news gathering process,†said News 4 Senior Correspondent and BBA Board Member Rich Newberg.
Our heartfelt sympathy goes out to Steve’s family.
