Roy Leonard who was a rising star at first WHDH and then WNAC was suddenly
out of a job in 1967 when WNAC-AM became WRKO. He was hired by WGN Chicago
and became a superstar.

He has started a blog and he has posted pictures of his WKOX, WHDH and WNAC
days.

He was Channel 5's first 11 PM newscaster,

Here is one for Donna - Roy with other WNAC jocks in the 60's - who are the
