Hofstra Radio Alumni Audio Yearbook

Tom Curley is like a force of nature.  From the moment we started talking - and before we began recording - he had so many great stories and so much energy.  Tom was a major part of Hofstra Radio, WVHC, in the early 70s and continued to contribute to the station for many years afterwards.

Garry Armstrong was a mainstay during the early days of Hofstra Radio when it was WVHC, under the Little Theater.  Marilyn Armstrong joined the station a few years later as one of the few women on staff at the station.  Together they recall the early days of Hofstra Radio and Hofstra College, before there were dorms on campus and before it was a University.

A callback to Ross Pryce, aka Ross "The Boss" Adams, who was mentioned in Episode 5 and an introduction to episodes featuring Garry & Marilyn Armstrong and Tom Curley.  Get to know the history of WVHC in the 1960s and early 1970s
