Alum Ed Cavagnaro, of KCBS, Inducted into Bay Area Radio Hall of Fame

SAN FRANCISCO CHRONICLE -- Ed Cavagnaro is close to being a lifer at KCBS. A graduate of San Francisco State’s radio-TV-film department, he joined the station in its promotions department in 1977, when it had a news and talk format. He soon became a news editor, and in 1988, was promoted to director of news and programming. Two years later, KCBS switched to all news, and after a decade of looking up at KGO in the ratings, Cavagnaro and company have been top-rated since 2010.
