Milan Kovacevic was one of the journalists legend of Television Belgrade. He was born on January 23, 1915 in Kotor Varos. Before World War II he successfully dealt with athletics, and after the war he edited a variety of newsletters dedicated to this sport, and in the period from 1952 to 1958 he was editor of the Belgrade newspaper "Sport".
Kovacevic belonged to the first generation of journalists at the recently established Television Belgrade, and during his many years of work by the qualitative standards in the genre of travelogue TV reports, which are still elusive. The highest altitude reached on television when he left the sport journalism and began to create (to date unsurpassed) series including "Caravan" and "The camera through the world." The first three pilot episodes of "Caravan" Kovacevic was implemented in 1963, 1964 and 1965, and by 1983 he recorded a total of 114 broadcasts of this series, in which the author of TV viewers discovered landscapes, people and customs that did not know that exist in contemporary Yugoslavia.

Branko Copic after the war settled in Belgrade, and from 1951 he became a professional writer. He wrote the "national language", whose beauty, grandeur and lightness come to the fore in most of his works. By the end of his life he published about 150 titles, and is rightly considered among the most prolific and widely read writers of the late 20th century in the former Yugoslavia. Copic is for many people today the best children's writer, was born on the territory of the former common homeland. His novels "Eagles Fly early", "Glorious warfare", "Battle of the Golden Valley" and "Donkey's years", followed by collection of short stories "Tales of partisans", "Breakneck stories", "The stories below the dragon's wings" and "Adventures of a cat Tose" as well as a collection of poems "Magic Forest", "The Army, defense yours", "Partisan sad fairy tales", "Grandpa Trisa mill" and "Naughty boys" are an essential part of an anthology of literature for children.

Political persecution, which was exhibited almost the entire post-war period, most likely influenced the Copic`s decision to end life by jumping from the Branko's Bridge in Belgrade, on 26 March 1984.
