Manolo Quiroz dies

Manolo Quiroz, long time director of the Color Vision television channel, passed away on Monday afternoon, 26 January 2015. He was one of the first Dominican television executives, and worked as a technician at the time of the launch of state-owned La Voz Dominicana, the country’s first TV station in 1952. The station later became known as Radio Television Dominicana.

In 1963, Manolo Quiroz received a scholarship in France for advanced television studies and learn about color television, which led to the launch of the first Dominican color channel, the privately owned Color Vision, in 1969.
