Last of the Seven Swingin' Gentlemen

Elliot Field, one of the original seven Swingin' Gentlemen of KFWB, Los Angeles, was there for the introduction of Color Radio, working with radio pioneers Gordon McLendon and Chuck Blore, hosting his Field Frolic on the air every day. He also enjoyed a career as an actor, a commercial voiceover, and a popular cartoon character on The Flintstones and Quick Draw McGraw. An early victim of polio, Elliot has spent his life in leg braces, remaining active (and vertical) through it all. His stories, told in his straightforward voice, with touches of humor, are honest and inspiring. Elliot gives real meaning to the concept of the last man standing.
