Joe Donovan died Sunday morning while in the hospital being treated for issues with his colon.
Donovan hosted an all night radio show on 84 WHAS radio in the 80's and 90's mostly devoted to old time rock and roll.
He worked as an on-air personality in Loveland (KLOV), Ft. Collins (KCOL) and Denver (KOA, KIMN), Colorado. He was considered a pioneer in the "Oldies" concept before it became a fad. He moved to Louisville in 1977 to go on the air at WHAS 840. His air work reached most states and several other countries that could pick up the 50,000 watt station all night.
Joe continued working for Clear Channel Communications until his retirement in 1998.
