OK, he wasn't strictly a "Chicago" star, but he got many of us through the events of the 1980s-2000s as host of "Morning Edition" on WBEZ. A class act with a warm, no-nonsense approach to the news and features, especially the beloved "Fridays With Red" segments with the beloved Mr. Barber. He got his sweet revenge against NPR by entering our Radio Hall of Fame the year the year after being fired from ME. Hail and Farewell, Colonel Bob!
