Graham McNamee : ウィキペディア英語版 | Graham McNamee
Graham McNamee (July 10, 1888 in Washington, D.C.– May 9, 1942 in New York City) was a pioneering broadcaster in American radio, the medium's most recognized national personality in its first international decade.〔("Voices," ''Time'', October 3, 1927. )〕 ==Biography== Graham McNamee's father, John B. McNamee, was an attorney and legal advisor to President Grover Cleveland's cabinet, and his mother, Anne, was a homemaker, who also sang in a church choir. Born in Washington, D.C. and raised in St. Paul, Minnesota, McNamee had early aspirations of being an opera singer. He studied voice as a youth and sang in churches, and in 1922 gave a concert in Aeolian Hall, New York. In 1922, while serving jury duty in New York City, he visited the studios of radio station WEAF en route to the courthouse and, on a whim, went to audition as a singer. Someone noticed his voice and asked him to speak through a microphone. He was given an audition and hired as a staff announcer on the spot.
