Robert MacNeil died Friday morning at the age of 93. He was the visionary and driving force in the creation of the institution that, with Jim Lehrer, became the NewsHour. Jeffrey Brown looks back at his life and legacy.

Correction: This segment misidentified Civil Rights activist Roy Wilkins as his nephew, Civil Rights leader Roger Wilkins. We regret the error.
