Best Answer

Ronald Reagan became a radio announcer in Iowa after graduating from college. In Des Moines, Iowa he worked for radio station WHO recreating accounts of Chicago Cubs baseball games from the WHO studio utilizing information obtained via telegraph. An often-repeated tale of Reagan's radio days recounts how he delivered "play-by-play broadcasts" of Chicago Cubs baseball games he had never seen. His flawless recitations were based solely on telegraph accounts of games in progress. He took a screen test in 1937 while he was travelling in California with the Cubs. That resulted in Reagan moving to California and obtaining a seven-year contract with Warner Brothers studios.
