Radio Icon worked in radio and TV
City of San Diego declares Sept. 18 “Fred Lewis Day”
Radio icon, and a man who stated he only wanted to tell the truth, Fred Lewis has died at the age of 78. He was best known for his work on The Heart of San Diego and publicly said he was proud of the 653 interviews that were produced.
He was also the San Diego Gulls hockey team announcer in the 1960s. The San Diego Sports Arena also hired him as the public address announcer; and he was also the voice of the San Diego Rockets NBA team.
His radio ties are deep as he had a lasting mark at KSON, KGB-AM, KDEO, and KSDO. At 1130 KSDO, he was part of the original team that introduced a news-talk to the San Diego radio audience.
For fifteen years he was the sports director of KSDS Jazz 88. He also did a series of TV shows for Cox Cable.
The San Diego city council has declared that Sept. 18 as Fred Lewis Day. The docket can be read here.
