Jonathon Aivaz (May 1, 1921 – April 13, 1994), known professionally as Jack Douglas, was an Iranian-born American pioneer in the television industry.[1] He produced and hosted a variety of travel and adventure television series, ultimately establishing the style typically used by travel shows today. Douglas also pioneered in producing television shows in color, rather than in black and white, before the practice became common.[1] He would pay the extra cost to shoot his films in color, even when they were still being projected in black and white on television.[1]
