Greg Gumbel: Cbs Sportscaster

GREG GUMBEL
CBS Sportscaster


Greg Gumbel's standout work in the busy world of sports broadcasting has made his face, his name and his voice as familiar as any in the industry. For starters, Greg Gumbel is the lead play-by-play announcer for CBS Sports' coverage of the National Football League. In that capacity, he called the action at Super Bowl 35 in Tampa and will do so again at Super Bowl 38 in Houston.

Having formerly hosted the Emmy Award winning The NFL Today at CBS and The NFL on NBC, Gumbel hosted Super Bowl 26 in Minneapolis, Super Bowl 30 in Tempe, Arizona and Super Bowl 32 in San Diego. Greg is the only network broadcaster to both call play-by-play and host pro football's premiere event.

When the NFL season winds down, Greg switches from one premiere event to another as he becomes CBS' host of the NCAA Men's Basketball Tournament and one of the great events on the sports calendar, the Final Four.

In a broadcast career that began in 1973, Greg Gumbel has seen tours of duty at Chicago's WMAQ-TV, ESPN, the Madison Square Garden Network, CBS Sports, NBC Sports and, now, again at CBS.

His play-by-play resume includes the NFL, the NBA and college basketball, Major League Baseball and the College World Series Championship, as well as having been the voice at various times for the NY Yankees, the NY Knicks, the Philadelphia 76ers, the Cleveland Cavaliers and the Seattle Mariners.

As host, he has covered the NFL and college football, Major League Baseball, the Daytona 500, the World Figure Skating Championships, the 1992 Winter Olympics in Albertville, France and the 1996 Summer Olympics in Atlanta. Greg also served as the primetime anchor for the record-setting 1994 Olympic Winter Games from Lillehammer, Norway.

A 3-time Emmy Award winner, Greg was born May 3, 1946 in New Orleans and grew up in Chicago, graduating from Loras College in Dubuque, Iowa with a degree in English. When he's not behind the microphone for CBS, Greg speaks to business gatherings, organizations, conventions, chambers of commerce and colleges and universities, including commencement addresses, across the country and around the world. Greg has been a member of the March of Dimes National Board of Trustees since 1996 and he is serving his second 5-year term in that capacity.
