Whether or not you like announcers, it is almost impossible to avoid hearing a young man named Harlow Wilcox. Mr. Wilcox is now spieling for four of the top programs in radio. On Fibber McGee and Molly, he is almost as well known as the stars themselves. He handles the announcing duties on the Maxwell House show, Blondie and Mayor Of The Town. As close as we can check, Harlow's voice reaches more people than any single person on the air. Wilcox, who has* been with Fibber and Molly since they started their series in 1935, in Chicago, is a tall, broad-shouldered young man with a warm smile, straight brown hair and blue eyes. When he talks, his bushy eyebrows move up and down rhythmically. "They keep time for me," he grins. In almost eight years with the McGees, Harlow has been off the air only once. Wilcox grew up in an atmosphere of showmanship. His father played cornet for the first Ringling Brothers circus ever produced. Later, the elder Wilcox became a well known band leader and young Harlow served as the band boy, lugging instrument cases all over the country. Harlow's sister, Hazel, was a concert violinist. It is little wonder that in his youth, Harlow aspired to be a musician. He wanted to play a hot trombone. In his early 'teens, Harlow left home for the Chautauqua platform and the stage. He knocked about, touching almost all of the forty-eight states and ended up broke. A firm dealing in electrical equipment offered him a job as a salesman and young Wilcox decided to try it. After five years on the road in this business, he became sales manager of the concern. Wilcox was not happy as a sales manager. His years of keeping on the move, made it almost impossible for him to stay in one place. In January, 1934, he gave up his position in the electrical company and joined the announcing staff of NBC in Chicago. He figured he'd save money and then travel, but he met Jim and Marion Jordan who took him in hand and induced him to settle down with them. It wasn't really "settling down" because Fibber and Molly helped guide him to the top rung in radio announcing. When the McGees' program moved out to California, Harlow went with it. Now, most of his traveling is done in and around Hollywood, as he dashes from program to program. He is married to Mari Bishop of Oak Park, Illinois, whom he met while he was an announcer at NBC. Harlow's favorite sports are horseback riding, golf and tennis. He likes poetry, biography and modern music. Those in radio who know Harlow well say that he is a very simple, unaffected person with an infinite capacity for laughter and story telling. Harlow's ambition is to spend the next thirty years as an announcer for Fibber and Molly and some day accompany them on a trip around the world.
