Gary Martin ― November, 1967 to December, 1971
Gary Martin's Timeline
Gary is a graduate of Lincoln High School, in Lincoln NE. The earliest
record of Gary's career I could find, was at KFAB in Omaha, Nebraska, where,
under his real name (Gary Greeness), he spun records and aired the news.
Beyond that, not much is known about Gary Martin, other than that he began as
fill-in man at WRKO (arriving from WTIX / New Orleans), eventually having his
own full-time shift in various timeslots. After WRKO, he worked elsewhere in
Massachusetts, and in other markets including Cincinnati at WKRQ (FM).
Due to health issues, he now resides at a nursing home in Missouri. In 2005,
yours truly. Shel Swartz (wrko.org Webmaster) located him, had a wonderful chat
on the phone, after which I sent him some WRKO memorabilia. He sounded
warm, upbeat, and sincere.
