REMEMBERING BOB NEWHART '47

CBS Chicago visited Saint Ignatius College Prep to learn more about the school's decades-long relationship with comedian and actor Bob Newhart '47.
The alum from the West Side of Chicago was a member of the Harlequins and took his skillset to Loyola University. He went on to become a household name through work on the TV shows "The Bob Newhart Show," "Newhart" and "The Big Bang Theory," and films such as the 2003 Christmas classic, "Elf."
 
President John Chandler befriended Mr. Newhart, and spoke with Channel 2 about why the Ignatius graduate will always be in our hearts. Click on the link to hear what he had to say. Click here for more.
