Tony Bruno Biography

Tony Bruno's radio success isn't one of those reality show contestants, overnight sensations, or flavors of the month, but more than 35 years after starting his dream job in broadcasting, he's still fresh and current. Tony has probably done everything you can think of. At the age of 18, his local radio pedigree flourished at renowned WFIL Famous 56 in Philadelphia, where he rose through the ranks to become an award-winning reporter, anchor, and discussion host at the top level of the profession. Tony went from newscaster to street reporter to sports reporter and later sports talk host after learning the ropes from the best news reporters and broadcasters of that exploding era of radio in the early 1970s. He was ready to absorb and change in an industry pushing limited performers out the door every day. Local award-winning sports coverage of Philadelphia teams in the 1970s grabbed the attention of New York executives, and he secured his first network job anchoring weekend updates for RKO Radio Networks in New York in 1980. Tony was at every significant athletic event in America, from Olympic games throughout the world to every big sporting event in the United States, learning and improving. Bruno was the first voice chosen by ESPN when they decided to create a national radio network in 1992, anchoring what is now regarded as the best roster of weekend talent ever assembled. Bruno moved on to explore a life outside of the east coast eight years later, launching Fox Sports Radio in Los Angeles in 2000. Tony's combination of flair, comedy, and substance has been well received on the west coast. According to the Los Angeles Times, he is "perhaps America's finest sports talk show presenter." He was picked by EA Sports to be a part of the most successful video game franchise ever, hosting a radio program within Madden NFL 2005, 06, and 2007. With so many vehicles for modern-day information, sports fans demand more than stats to keep them interested. A classic broadcaster, where the on-air presence and great sound were the first crafts to hone, his career evolution continues today as sports fans demand more than stats to keep them interested. Tony Bruno's young energy, drive to keep learning, and love for all he does are greater than ever as he approaches a new decade of broadcasting. With his personal and approachable attitude, contagious humor, and general love of life, it's no surprise that he has a devoted following of listeners, affiliates, and advertisers who laugh, live, and learn with him every day on the radio. Tony Bruno is more than simply another host of a sports talk program. His variety, pop-cultural knowledge, love of wine and good eating, globe travel, wide musical interests, and ability to keep himself active, healthy, and strong make him active, healthy, and strong. Tony is now focused on being married to his loving, caring, and supporting radio program audience and having some close, loyal friends to balance out a terrific profession and life after a long marriage with three grown and amazing children-turned-adults. Tony is a single man who lives in Venice Beach, California, where he can be seen touring the bike paths and enjoying life.
