Early life

Career

He began his broadcasting career shortly after college, bouncing between jobs in Cincinnati, Dayton, and New York City. He came to Cleveland in 1970, where he worked for WGAR (1220 AM), and later its sister station, WGAR-FM (99.5 FM). He served the latter part of his tenure as music director/afternoon drive DJ.
