I was born in Miami, Florida on 9/14/60. I wanted to be a fighter pilot as a kid, but after watching the moon landing in 1969 I changed that to Astronaut. After spending a lot of time at the drafting table in high school, I gave up an engineering scholarship for broadcasting school.

Before I graduated I got a job at the Miami Seaquarium training Killer Whales and Dolphins. After 3 years there, I worked for Apple Computers for nine months traveling around the country doing demo’s and for a couple of seasons I was on Miami Vice (OCB on camera background).

My first Radio job was at a small AM station in Homestead Fl. 1430 WQDI (country format). The station closed and I started flying for Metro Traffic Networks as a traffic reporter. I spent a lot of time on both the west and east coasts of the U.S. doing radio. I worked for WAXY, Y-100, WKIS, WIOD and WSHE in Miami. In Los Angeles I worked for Metro Traffic, KLOS, KFWB and many others.

After Hurricane Andrew I lost everything and moved to Gainesville in 1993 and workied as a contractor for Cox Cable. While there I ran into a guy from South Florida who told me I should be back on the airways. That’s when I started working for K-Country doing the Lov’in or Leav’in show. After about five years I switched over to the Rock Station WIND-FM. My hobbies are riding my Harley, skydiving, flying, surfing and camping. I am single with 2 rat terriers Doobie and Ruby whom I love very much. Why work when you can be a DJ….the greatest job in the world.  Keep Rock’in!! Charlie McGraw

Deep Stops Smokin
© Retna/ Jon Lord in 1973 Deep Purple keyboardist Jon Lord dies at 71 July 16, 2012, 1:50 PM EST WENN Deep Purple keyboardist Jon Lord has lost his battle with cancer at the age of 71. Lord was diagnosed with a tumor in his pancreas in 2011, and he headed to Israel in February to undergo treatment. He was due to make his return in Hagen, Germany, earlier this month, but had to postpone the gig due to poor health. Bing: Watch clips of Deep Purple A statement released at the time read, "Jon wishes to assure everyone that this is not a matter for concern, but it is a continuation of his regular treatment that has just taken longer than anticipated. He and the Hagen Philharmonic Orchestra hope to be able to reschedule the concert for later in the year." However, Lord's condition took a turn for the worse, and he passed away Monday at a private hospital in London. A post on his official website states, "It is with deep sadness we announce the passing of Jon Lord, who suffered a fatal pulmonary embolism today, Monday 16th July at the London Clinic, after a long battle with pancreatic cancer. Jon was surrounded by his loving family."
