Radio legend Hal Jackson, the first African-American voice on network radio, died yesterday of undisclosed illness. He was in his 90s. Jackson began his career in Washington, D.C., as the first African-American play-by-play sports announcer. He moved to New York in the 1950s where he hosted three different radio shows, broadcasting a mix of jazz and conversation with celebrities. A big loss for all of radio. Goodbye and thank you from WNYC.
