A 53-year old Brooklyn native Ted Williams, homeless man with ‘golden voice’, gets a full-time job and home offered by Cleveland Cavaliers.
A Columbus Dispatch reporter found Ted Williams (homeless man with ‘golden voice’) on the side of the road while he was panhandling. A sign he was carrying reads:
“I have a God given gift of voice. I’m an ex-radio announcer who has fallen on hard times. Please! Any help will be greatfully appreciated. Thank You and God Bless You”
During the short interview at the road side, he said that he grew up in Brooklyn, and at 14 he took a field trip to a radio station. While there, he was struck by the fact that one of the on-air announcers looked nothing like he sounded. “Radio is defined ‘theater of mind,’ ” the announcer told him.
Here is the YouTube video that became viral last Tuesday.
