As a Cleveland radio DJ and host for more than four decades, Morrow became well known for his upbeat personality and gentle good humor. He earned the nickname “Mr. Cleveland” for his active role in promoting Cleveland’s turnaround in the 1980s and 1990s. 

Morrow came to Cleveland from Detroit in 1966 to join the innovative rock-and-roll station WIXY 1260. He later hosted morning shows on WWWE, WERE, WQAL and Sirius Satellite Radio.
