Where's Gator ?

Does anyone know where I can locate the jock known as "Gator" ? Worked in New Orleans in the 90's.
 
If you are talking about the original "Gator in the Morning" ...just wanted to make sure, because he worked in New Orleans from 1986 through around 1991. That is the Gator I am talking about. I think there were some other Gator's that sprung up on the air like Gator Harrison in Nashville, so if that's the Gator you are talking about, it's a different one. I think you are talking about the one that I know ...so if you are, as I said, he left radio in 2007 and opened a film production company called GRAVEN IMAGE PRODUCTIONS and as I understand it is doing very well and is very happy to be back in his home town after so many years on the road doing mornings. Not sure how to contact him, but I can find out through the friend who told me this if you need to talk to him.
 
Are you sure that's the same guy? I heard retired to Amsterdam where he became a very successful call-boy and died of a venereal disease that was later named after him. Perhaps you've heard of it: gatorrhea. He reportedly died with a smile on his face. :eek:
 
There was a "Gator" who worked for B97 around 99-2000 who later segued to 104.1 when it was Kiss under the name "Larry Knight" I think he's in Florida now.

Hey that's me!!
But, I'm in Myrtle Beach SC now.
Can't believe anyone here even knew who I was.
 
The Gator I was searching for is the one who now has his agency / studio in Lafayette. Thanks...

A couple of other names if you've heard where they are: Captain Billy Martin ....and Jim Lucas aka Ron Thompkins.....also Michael Lea aka The Grand Wazoo........
 
Cap'n Billy is probably dead or in prison...seriously. I miss Jim Lucas, he was a good guy. Wish I could find him too.
