Currently performing public address work at an NAIA college in Michigan for women's/men's basketball and women's volleyball games.
In 2007, I impersonated Jimmy Stewart for a stamp unveiling. Leading up to the unveiling, I appeared at area radio and TV stations, in character, and performed as Jimmy Stewart during a lead-up skit preceding the stamp unveiling.
During the early 1980s, I worked at WHO-AM in Des Moines as a newscaster/sportscaster, with sports talk show hosting and basketball play-by-play responsibilities thrown in.
I worked in news and sports part-time at several radio stations during my undergraduate days at the University of Missouri, and performed as the public address announcer for my high school boys' basketball team during my senior year in high school.
