Shep was on the radio for over 30 years.
Although he was involved with writing books, movies, and
countless magazine stories, this is the medium from which
many of his fans remember him. Most notably for the WOR New
York Years.

Paying the Bills
Shep's 'favorite' part of the show was the commercials.
He always considered them an unnecessary interruption
to his train of thought and flow of material and many times
commented so.
