He was 70, according to the NY Daily News.
He had earlier recovered from colon and lung cancer.
He hosted "Morning Music," a now-defunct classical show on WNYC from 1982 until 2001. He returned to WNYC in 2002 to host "The No Show," a quirky combination of music and commentary that defied almost every programming rule of radio.
