In 1967, the Detroit market hired a radio announcer. After three years of market experience, Liebman founded Specs Howard School, a radio and television broadcasting-focused institution. The school changed throughout time and expanded its curriculum to include graphic design and digital media skills. On January 14, 2020, the media trade school celebrated its 50th birthday.
In 2021, the Specs Howard School of Media Arts closed its location in Southfield and amalgamated with Lawrence Tech. More than 15,000 former students of Specs Howard have entered the media industry since 1970.
