Speaking of Radio
Selected interviews we think you’ll like
Composer, musical director and organist on hundreds of radio broadcasts in the golden era and beyond. He was age 84 when we spent a little time with him at the Sportsmen’s Lodge in Studio City, California shortly before a meeting of the Pacific Pioneer Broadcasters. He was born April 12, 1907 and he died on September 10, 1997 at age 90.
To commemorate the 50th Anniversary of Those Were the days, we produced a limited series of audio vignettes selected from programs originally heard between 1970 and 2020.
Twenty episodes were presented on selected TWTD programs between October 2019 and April 2020.
