HIGHLIGHTS
FRANK'S BOOK
Frank’s journey from a tiny radio station in the northwest corner of New Jersey, to being part of the golden days of ‘shock jock radio’, and later big time New York City TV news, is laugh out loud funny. Frank brings you along as he covers stories big and small in and around New York City. From the in-studio ‘Imus Corn Flake Story’, to the tale of the full-grown tiger living in a NYC high-rise. It's a hilarious romp!
“One of the best jobs ever was working at WNBC Radio. Frank’s remembrances of our work at WNBC remind me of how much fun radio is, especially when you work with guys like him. But I don’t remember the nude show. I think I was out that day.”

“My finest years in broadcasting were spent sitting next to Frank on the anchor desk at News 12 New Jersey. Frank & his shenanigans made the squawk of the alarm clock at 2:30 a.m. that much more bearable.”
