Along the way he has mentored many of today's most creative and successful radio professionals and enjoys a coast-to-coast reputation for being just what he is, a gentleman's gentleman. Warren and his wife Carole enjoy spending time with their 3 grandchildren and he is determined to play golf in all 50 states (current count: 48). Congratulations, Warren!
