THE HAT SQUAD: JOHN TIFFIN

This obituary was posted at TVNewser:

John Tiffin (1930-2010), the award-winning "60 Minutes" producer who worked out of the program's London office from 1970-2002, passed away last Thursday.

Tiffin was best known for his off-beat work with Morley Safer and was the recipient of three Emmy awards. He joined CBS News in 1954 as a cameraman.

He was the producer for the 1977 segment in which Morley Safer rode the Orient Express, ("Last Train To Istanbul"), for which Mr. Tiffin has my undying admiration.





Good night and may God bless, Sir.
