Bob Harris Bio
Bob Harris is a broadcaster and writer born on 11th April 1946 in Northampton, England. Selling insurance was his first line of work. His passion for broadcasting started at a younger age. One local football station was impressed by his skills and thus took him in as a volunteer to give coverage. Later, it would offer him full employment, which enabled him to grow as a sports news announcer. He served as a sports director for eight years before moving to Durham to take a sales job. He has worked as a games commentator and hosted sports talk shows in his long career. He has also broadcasted basketball games.
Harris happens to be one of the original presenters to work with BBC 6 Music. He has shows on BBC Radio 2. Harris hosted "Bob Harris Country" on Thursdays, and his fans would also follow the "Bob Harris show'' on Saturdays. One of his highest moments was winning the "Music Broadcaster of the Year award." Sony was the company that gave him the award. He later received recognition for being an outstanding contributor to music. He won the Radio Academy award in that regard.
