Dick’s nearly seventy years in radio began in Ware, MA and included stops in Holyoke, Springfield, and Providence, RI before landing at WDRC in Hartford. He was a DJ, hosted record hops, and perhaps most notably founded the Connecticut School of Broadcasting, where thousands of Connecticut broadcasters got their training in the industry. Dick’s love for broadcasting has continued with his international radio show “Dick Robinson’s American Standards by the Sea.” Dick is also involved with philanthropic work through his non-profit, The Society for the Preservation of the Great American Songbook.
