He graduated from Duluth High School and then attended the Brown Institute of Broadcasting in Minnesota. From a young age Alan was very enthusiastic about sports, baseball specifically. Alan started his love for broadcasting at a young age. In 1965 he received a tape recorder. Alan and his younger brother Tom would have it on and play Stratomatic baseball (a game played with cards and dice) and call the games.

His hard work and dedication was inspiring and respected by not only the WCLO radio family but the community as well. Alan received countless accolades and milestone achievements with WCLO. By the time he retired in 2016 he had announced over 2,000 games. He absolutely loved is work with the youth sports teams in the community! After retiring, Alan spent his time traveling with Mary to various museums, his favorite vacation spot, Door County, Wisconsin and to see his Daughter in Nashville. When they weren’t taking trips, Alan would be in the studio recording commercials for various local area businesses and announcing Janesville Jets Hockey games. The time he cherished most was spending time with his wife and daughter. Alan and Mary reached a life milestone in 2019 celebrating their 40th wedding anniversary!
