Gord Atkinson “Ottawa’s Oldest Teenager”

September 9, 2023 - 13:00 - 14:00

Peter Atkinson, Author, Gord Atkinson: “Ottawa’s Oldest Teenager”

 

A generation of teens anxiously tuned into CFRA every week to hear Peter’s father spin the latest hits and introduce the young rock and roll fans to the hottest new musicians. Gord Atkinson helped launch the careers of performers like Rich Little, Paul Anka, and the Staccatos — and was widely respected by Elvis Presley and numerous other superstars. All are welcome to attend without charge.
