Syracuse Radio Personality
62 WHEN Radio's Peter King
1985

62 WHEN Syracuse, NY
Peter King CBS Radio News

Today former mid-day personality at 62 WHEN, Peter King, is often heard reporting news on CBS radio.

In November, 1985, Joan Hastings wrote a feature article for the Syracuse New Times titled, "The Name Game."  On the front page, Ron Curtis, proclaiming, "I'm not Ron Curtis.'"

It was during the research for this story that  New Times photographer, Michael Davis,  took this shot of Peter at 62 WHEN's studios, then located at 620 Old Liverpool Rd.

The main point of this feature story was that many on-air personalities do not use their real names for a variety of reasons, including the reduction of nuisance calls at all times of the day and night at home.

In this story we learn that Ron Curtis really wasn't Ron Curtis.  Rod Wood isn't really Rod Wood and Peter King.... well....
