From Wikipedia, the free Encyclopedia Bruce Morrow (born October 13, 1937 in Brooklyn, New York) is an American radio disc jockey, known to generations of New York metropolitan area listeners as Cousin Brucie.
Morrow began his career at New York Top 40 station WINS in 1959. In 1960 he moved to Miami for a brief stint before returning to the New York airwaves the following year on WABC-AM, another Top 40 outlet. "Cousin Brucie" became a legend on WABC's teen-oriented evening shift, remaining at the station until 1974, when he jumped to rival station WNBC; after two years there, he left the airwaves to become the owner/manager of a group of stations.
In 1982 Morrow returned to the DJ role with New York's WCBS-FM, a popular oldies station. He hosted a several-times-a-week show there until the station's change to a Jack FM format in June of 2005. Shortly thereafter, he signed a multi-year deal to host oldies programming on Sirius Satellite Radio.
Morrow was inducted into the Radio Hall of Fame in 1988.
His voice can be heard in the 1987 film Dirty Dancing; he also appeared in the 1978 film Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band and had a guest appearance in the 1990s Babylon 5 television series.
