I was an NBC page two weeks laterIt was 1976 and I was 20, still in college and clueless.
Now in its 90th year, the NBC Page program is one of the most prestigious entry-level positions in the entertainment industry.
I wish I could tell you there was one straight, surefire way to becoming an NBC page, but there isn't.
My other friend Al got his NBC page job when the women who worked behind the scenes on "Wheel of Fortune" spotted him as a contestant on the show.
She is the author of "My Peacock Tale: Secrets of an NBC Page."
