Peter C. Cavanaugh

Prominently featured in Cleveland's Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, 16 year-old Peter C. Cavanaugh enjoyed a fifty-eight percent total audience share on his hometown station, WNDR in Syracuse, New York in 1957. Decades later, he's written a book about his adventures ever since, promoting and producing literally hundreds of early concerts with the likes of Chuck Berry, The Rolling Stones, Jimi Hendrix, The Who, Bob Seger, Ted Nugent, Alice Cooper, Kiss and so on, as well as running a seven station radio group which included the top-rated Rock & Roll stations in America.

As Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer of Reams Broadcasting, he produced and narrated the United Auto Workers' 50th Anniversary Celebration in downtown Flint on September 5, 1987. During his Flint years, Cavanaugh introduced Academy Award Winning Film Director Michael Moore to an unsuspecting public over WTAC-AM and WWCK-FM from 1979 through 1986, when Moore left Flint to become Editor of Mother Jones Magazine in San Francisco.

Peter lives in Oakhurst, California, with his wife, Eileen.
