Hall of Fame returns to New Jersey

Once located in Freehold and then moving to Los Angeles, the National Broadcas-ters Hall Of Fame (NBHF) has returned to New Jersey and will be located at the Information Age Learning Center and Museum in Wall Township at the former Camp Evans. At noon on Sept. 16, the NBHF will induct Arthur Anderson, Charles Osgood and Les Paul.

Emceeing the event will be Fred Foy, known as the voice that introduced such radio programs as "The Lone Ranger," "The Green Hornet" and "Challenge of The Yukon," and later as the announcer for "The Dick Cavett Show" and the voice talent behind many national advertising campaigns.

Inductee Arthur Anderson began voice acting on radio in 1931 and later became an on-screen actor, including such TV shows as "Law and Order."

Inductee Charles Osgood, CBS News poet in residence, has anchored "Sunday Morning" since 1994, he writes and broadcasts "The Osgood Files" daily on CBS Radio, and he has reported and anchored for "CBS Evening News With Dan Rather."

Inductee Les Paul began his career in the 1920s and became one of the most popular guitarists by the mid-1950s. Teamed with his wife, Mary Ford, the pair earned many gold records and Grammy awards.
