Paul Harvey, a radio legend who began his career in 1933 while he was still in high school, has died, ABC News reported Saturday. Harvey was 90.
Harvey began his radio career on KVOO-AM while in high school in his hometown of Tulsa, Okla. He was known for his unique, staccato-style delivery of news combined with commentary, which resonated with tens of millions of Americans for more than five decades.
Among the dozens of professional honors Harvey received, he was inducted into the National Radio Hall of Fame and, in 1992, received the Paul White Award, the highest honor presented by RTNDA, the Radio-Television News Directors Association. President George W. Bush bestowed the Presidential Medal of Freedom on Harvey in 2005.
Angel Harvey is credited with creating his popular radio feature "The Rest of the Story."
