Instead, the president and CEO of NELSON, a $70 million international design and consulting firm, surrounds himself with people who do focus on the details so he can focus on what all of those details could become in the big picture. During that period, Nelson has focused on rapid growth, avoiding distractions, being disciplined in speed to market and quickly doing transactions, a textbook approach that was exactly what his company needed to get to the next level.
COMMENTARY Tuesday marked the release of the first authorized DVD of "The Adventures of Ozzie and Harriet." Until now, only random episodes had been available, in low-budget, poor-quality "public domain" versions, and none bore the imprimatur of the Nelson family, which owns rights to the original film elements and, just as important, to the creator's inalienable right to say, "We made this.
In the early days of television, America tuned to the "The Adventures of Ozzie and Harriet." The dad at the center of that wholesome household, Ozzie Nelson, sprang not from the Midwest but from Ridgefield Park, where he starred on the high school football team. You can feel the spirit of Ozzie Nelson in working-class Ridgefield Park, where the Stars and Stripes flutter over front porches and New Jersey's oldest Fourth of July parade always draws a crowd. It wasn't too long ago that the parking meters stopped accepting pennies. Residents meet and greet at the Village IGA, more an old-fashioned grocery store than a supermarket.
Following the death of television actor David Nelson several weeks ago, Jim Norton wrote to ask whether anything has ever appeared in this column about Nelson's parents -- Ozzie and Harriet Nelson -- and the fact that there's a Wayne County connection. (The answer is "No.")
LOS ANGELES -- David Nelson, the elder son of Ozzie and Harriet Nelson and the last surviving member of the family that became an American institution in the 1950s and 1960s as the stars of the classic TV sitcom "The Adventures of Ozzie and Harriet," died Tuesday. He was 74. Nelson died in his Century City home of complications from colon cancer, said publicist Dale Olson.
One of the real signs of spring is when Ted Thompson gets booed upon greeting the masses at Lambeau Field on draft day. So it came as no surprise that not-so Terrible Ted did not get a hero's welcome after the Jordy Nelson announcement. Maybe the gathering thought he picked Ozzie Nelson.
The one-earner Ozzie and Harriet family has left the neighborhood. We've known that a long time, even if we never figured out what Ozzie Nelson did for a living.
WASHINGTON, June 8 /U.S. Newswire/ -- Twenty-two years after the show went off air, people still have a soft spot for Little House on the Prairie and its iconic dad, Charles Ingalls, says a new AARP The Magazine Father's Day survey, which placed Ingalls (Michael Landon) atop a list of top TV dads with 30 percent of the vote. Playing second fiddle to Ingalls is Cliff Huxtable at 25 percent (Bill Cosby), followed by Ward Cleever, 10 percent (Hugh Beaumont) and Ozzie Nelson, 7 percent. Full results can be accessed at http:// www.aarpmagazine.org/family. In a survey of over 1,000 Boomers, AARP The Magazine also asked respondents a series of questions about relationships with their fathers. When asked to describe the strongest emotion they felt in their relationship with their father, 41...

David Nelson, the last of the Ozzie-and-Harriet Nelsons, died Tuesday at age 74. On the deceptive face of it, David was the least colorful member of the first family of situation comedy: One would say, within the context of the show, that he was his mother's son -- practical, serious, down-to-earth -- as goofy, dreamy, pop star Ricky was his father's.
