Harvey produced and edited her husband's popular radio show "The Rest of the Story" and her radio efforts made her the only producer allowed into the Radio Hall of Fame, ABC News reported.

In addition to creating the amusing "kicker" her husband would use during his hard-news broadcasts, Harvey was credited with numerous programming innovations in the media industry.

Among those innovations was her work on the TV program "Dilemma," which has been credited as a prototype for the modern-day talk show format.

ABC News said in addition to her husband, Harvey is survived by their son, Paul Jr.
