HOMETOWN: Born in Hershey; grew up in Lebanon & Lancaster County (vonct!)

FAMILY: Wife and two 20-something kids and a son-in-law
(who unfortunately is a Red Sox Fan!)

FIRST JOB IN RADIO: Mornings on a "beautiful music" station in Palmyra, PA
(I specialized in announcing the time)

FAVORITE SONG: The one I just played

FAVORITE ARTIST: Don't know...too many...I'm a big fan of the late 60s and 70s Rock & Roll...the Guess Who...Grand Funk...Bob Seger...that kind of stuff

FAVORITE STORY BEHIND THE SONG: I like to hear about songs that became hits, that at first were supposed to be nothing more than album "filler"...like Steam's "Na-Na-Hey-Hey Kiss Him Goodbye" or Lee Michaels' "Do You Know What I Mean" (well, do ya?)

HOBBIES OUTSIDE OF RADIO: Stuff that can be done outside...Baseball (the BRAVES!)...running...cutting grass...the beach...I love Summer

FAVORITE MOMENT ON 96.1 The first year of 96.1...the excitement of starting a brand-new station from scratch...nothing will ever top that.
