KGO-AM - GIL GROSS weekdays 2P-4P to replace host Pete Wilson who tragically passed away during surgery a month ago:
from the KGO listener club -
Dear Mr:
We're delighted to announce that starting September 17, award-winning ABC Radio journalist Gil Gross will be joining KGO AM 810 in the 2-4 p.m. slot on weekday afternoons. His broad knowledge of local, national and international issues makes Gil a perfect addition to our all-star talk lineup. (Get the full story here.)
Gil's no stranger to KGO listeners; he's been a fill-in talk show host for several years and is Paul Harvey's chief substitute at ABC. His distinguished broadcast career began when, at the age of 23, he became the youngest anchorman in history on network newscasts from the ABC Chicago Bureau, while also anchoring at WLS Radio. In subsequent years he has been recognized for outstanding reporting on international stories including the attempted assassination of the Pope and the Intifada in Jerusalem. Gross has recently anchored ABC Radio News coverage of 9-11, the execution of Timothy McVeigh and the war with Iraq.
We're very pleased to welcome Gil to KGO - as operations manager Jack Swanson put it, "Gil has appeared on KGO so frequently during the past few years, it's not like a stranger joining us, but a respected friend. He is a rare and gifted talent, and I'm delighted that he's joining our amazing team of broadcasters."
As for Gil, he thinks he's going to like it here. "I am thrilled to be joining KGO Radio," he said. "It is still committed to local programming, making it almost unique - not just in this market, but in America. It is still committed to news, and it still has a stake in its community."
Gil is married to actress/singer Rhoda Bodzin; they have a son, Spencer Darrow Gross. They'll be relocating to the Bay Area in the near future.
Welcome Gil and family!
Mickey Luckoff
KGO President and General Manager
