Who has a career of 78 years?
The late Bob Wolff, that’s who.
The legendary New York based broadcaster started his career at Durham’s WDNC, in 1939, while a student at Duke.
He went on to what the Guinness Book of World Record’s verifies was the longest broadcast career in history.
That’s so long that he covered or interviewed Jim Thorpe, Babe Ruth, Ty Cobb and Joe Louis, among others.
Just consider a few more names for perspective: Lou Gehrig, Man O’ War, Byron White as an athlete (he later became a Supreme Court justice), Otto Graham, Y.
