Ronald Reagan was not always a politician. Early in his career, he was a radio announcer and then an actor. On radio, he used the name "Dutch" Reagan, and could be heard on WHO in Des Moines, Iowa in the mid 1930s. Many male radio announcers back then reported on the news, while others preferred to do the sports reports and the play-by-play. (A few announcers even did both news and sports.) Being a radio announcer would not have been an unusual career choice back then; in that era before television, the public depended on their favorite announcers to keep them informed. In fact, many announcers were very popular, and they made good salaries. For Mr. Reagan, being on the radio as a sportscaster gave him some visibility and won him many fans.
