A veritable legend in broadcast history, "Cousin Brucie" Morrow is the only on-air personality in New York City to have a street named after him, and he was inducted into the Radio Hall of Fame in 1988 and Broadcasting & Cable's Hall of Fame in 1990. His autobiography, COUSIN BRUCIE: MY LIFE IN ROCK AND ROLL RADIO, was a bestseller as was his classic, DOO WOP: THE MUSIC, THE TIMES, THE ERA. "Cousin Brucie" recently signed another long-term contract with Sirius XM Radio, so listeners can groove with their favorite DJ three times a week.
