Josh Gelman, "48 Hours" producer who embodied bravery and hope, dies of cancer

Josh Gelman, a multi-award-winning producer for CBS News' "48 Hours" died Tuesday evening, January 4, at the age of 62, after a long, courageous battle with cancer. His wife Christina, his brothers Gregg and Matt, and Gregg's husband Joe were at his side.

In his nearly three-decade career at CBS News, Josh displayed his numerous talents as an editor, producer, writer, and photographer. His supreme gift was finding, capturing, and deploying images that revealed the emotion and deeper meanings at the heart of every story. And his stories took him seemingly everywhere: from covering the Eco-Challenge race in Borneo; to exploring the inner workings of Hollywood; to reporting on some of the world's most compelling true-crime sagas such as the disappearance of Madeleine McCann, the murder of Martha Moxley, the trial of Jodi Arias and the case of "Fatal Vision" killer Jeffrey MacDonald.

Josh was also beloved as a colleague who always took the time to mentor, to teach, to help.  Years since they last worked with Josh, many producers and editors across the industry still regard the time they spent with him as a pivotal moment in their career.
