About the Book
Much is made of the fact that Joe Bostic was a man of “firsts,” as a member of the black community. He was the first black announcer on radio, first black sports announcer, first boxing announcer at Madison Square Garden, the first black to present a concert in Carnegie Hall, and many other impressive achievements.
