Red Benson
1961

On WPEN Radio in the fifties and sixties, Red Benson was known for his pleasing voice and mild manner. Red was a mainstay in our city's broadcasting for years. His program was in several different time periods over the years. We have an excerpt from Friday, December 31, 1965, Red's New Year's Eve program on 950, WPEN.
