After the Tiananmen Massacre in 1989, the Chinese government expelled Al for illegal news gathering and fomenting counter-revolutionary rebellion. For his work in China, he received the Communicator of the Year Award from the National Association of Government Communicators and won a Gold Medal at the International Radio Festivals of New York. Al lives in Florida with his wife and their Yellow Lab, Rory.
