This is my dad! He had a wonderful career with NBC and CBS. It was fun to hear my classmates from Manhasset, New York, comment hearing my dad on the radio! "There's Mr. Metz" they would say excitedly. I wonder how many remember him now?
Spoiler :
I remember you and your dad very well. He was incredibly helpful to me and got me started in my radio career as a young man. He was a very close friend despite the great difference in our ages. I think I was a Manhasset High senior when you were a junior. I idolized your dad.
Spoiler :
