Skip Weshner

Theodore Stewart "Skip" Weshner (August 8, 1927 – December 22, 1996) was an American radio disc jockey on stations in New York and Los Angeles from the mid-1950s until the mid-1980s. In particular, he hosted a popular show on KRHM-FM in Los Angeles.

Weshner often broadcast from Greenwich Village, including The Bitter End on Bleecker Street and the Cafe Feenjon on MacDougal Street. At the New York Hi-Fi Show at the New Yorker Hotel, c. 1963, Weshner's live broadcast included the then relatively unknown Bob Dylan. Weshner is also remembered for inviting artists such as Gordon Lightfoot and John Denver to his show. He also contributed sleeve notes to Fred Neil's 1965 Elekra folk-rock album, Bleecker & MacDougal.

Weshner was married to Lynne Taylor (1936–1979) of The Rooftop Singers. After the group's hit single "Walk Right In" in early 1963, they moved to California. In Los Angeles in the early 1970s, he had a weekend late-night program on classical station KFAC, and was possibly most famous for his frequent programming of Paraguayan harp music and Caribbean steel drum music. He was also one of the first major station announcers to play what became a standard, bagpipe versions of "Amazing Grace."
