This profession has given me an incredible life. I have traveled the world and have seen the best of it and I’ve certainly seen the worst of it. Few people have the privilege of watching history as it’s being made and I was one of those happy few." Tom spends a few moments reflecting on his past history and the achievements he has earned.

Clark continues: "I was there when the Berlin Wall came down and when the tanks rolled into Tiananmen Square, among the first to see and report on a famine in Ethiopia that changed the way the world reacted to crises in the third world, reported from eight war zones and 33 countries, covered more than a dozen federal elections and brought you countless stories, big and small."

And with that, I say thank you and goodbye."
