Thomas Snyder 
      American television newsman

born May 12, 1936, Milwaukee, Wis.

died July 29, 2007, San Francisco, Calif.
served as host of NBC's The Tomorrow Show (1973–82) and helped to establish the popularity of the late-night talk-show format. Snyder was best known for his ability to connect with audiences in an intimate way and for his unusual questions and no-nonsense style of interviewing an array of guests, including such celebrities as political figures, rock musicians, and notorious criminals. He began his television career as a news anchor and morning talk-show host in Philadelphia before venturing to Los Angeles, where he hosted The Tomorrow Show. In 1974 Snyder moved with the program to New York, where it aired four times weekly; while hosting that show, he also anchored the evening news on NewsCenter4 and served as anchor on NBC's national newscast on Sunday nights. Snyder appeared on late-night cable TV during the early 1990s before returning to network TV to host (1995–99) The Late Late Show with Tom Snyder.
