Robin Seymour (DJ)

Robin Henry Seymour (March 9, 1926 – April 17, 2020) was an American radio personality and disc jockey who worked at CKLW and WKMH.

[1] He started in radio as a child actor on the Lone Ranger Show and eventually became one of the country's longest-serving disc jockeys.

In 1947, after a stint with the Armed Forces Radio Network during World War II, Seymour began an 18-year run with WKMH (now WDTW) in Dearborn, Michigan.

Seymour's afternoon "Bobbin' with Robin Show" featured all the top records on the music press sales charts.

In 1963, Seymour and three business partners, including co-producer Art Cervi (Bozo The Clown), created Teen Town, a dance-party format similar to American Bandstand, with each show focusing on a different Detroit area high school.

[citation needed] Seymour featured several established artists on his show, including Frank Zappa and the Mothers of Invention, James Brown, Dionne Warwick, and Wayne Cochran.
