Gary Avey has well over a half a century of radio experience. We are very fortunate to have him as a contributor to the Modesto Radio Museum. Gary is the museum’s “Microphone Man.” He says that for some reason as a kid he became nuts over microphones and other sound equipment. If it’s microphones you want to know about Gary’s your guy. He has the details and stories behind some of his favorite mics.

Gary grew up in Los Angeles, CA. listening to the radio stations in that area with their wide array of programming formats. He attended Don Martin School of Radio and Television Arts and Sciences in Hollywood.

We could go on writing about Gary’s broadcasting experience and his interest in microphones but we’ll let him tell you about it himself…
