From production to sales, to copywriting, on-air announcing, Program Director, Music Director, General Manager, and Owner, he progressively excelled at each phase.
Gaining his ‘chops’, he produced and wrote a 4-hour comedy morning show in Phoenix; after discharge from 6 years with the Air Force. Subsequently he produced the Dick Van Dyke radio show, was invited to write for NBC’s Laugh-in, and later moved on to ‘step-stone’ 7 radio stations.

He was host of a nationwide program based on the Billboard Music charts, and in the course of three years accomplished interviews with 136, first-level, musical celebrities on a program that became #1 throughout the country.
Spending 28 years in Japan, he not only worked on radio and TV, but also wrote columns for newspapers and magazines as well as commercial voice-over and copy writing.
He eventually created and put on the air Tokyo’s first English-language radio station, targeted at the foreign community and traveler to this mystifying country.
