Does anyone remember a Zoom Guest during the 1972 to 1973 season that was a radio announcer?

I think he had leukemia, and I also remembered he interviewed Howard Cosell.

He also showed up in the Neil Young "Journey Through the Past" movie.

Well from what I understand ZOOM was a show not only for kids but also about kids.

Therefore how did they end up interviewing radio annoucer?

OK thanks the futher info.

I watched the original series.

Unfortunatly I was too young to have a full understanding of it though I did enjoy it.

I first heard the song Summer Breeze on Zoom.
