He was raised in West Texas and studied journalism at Texas Tech University but left to work at the local news station before graduating. He would go on to WFAA-TV in Dallas, where he got the opportunity to hone his reporting skills in a top-five media market, covering regional and national stories such as presidential bids, the Waco Siege, and the Oklahoma City Bombing before joining CBS full-time in 1989.

Pelley’s assignments took him worldwide, sometimes into precarious theaters of conflict in the Middle East like the Iraq and Afghanistan wars and Ground Zero covering the 9/11 terrorist attacks, which earned him critical acclaim for his empathetic approach and sharp storytelling.
