Born in the shadows of Yankee Stadium in the Bronx NY, Gary first found his passions lit when his parents took him to see West Side Story. He was hooked on the explosive combination of Movies and Music. He later was managing a Licorice Pizza Record. In the mid 90's Gary started as a volunteer at National Public Radio's influential powerhouse KCRW. He later got a radio show. Gary's unique brand of "adventurous pop music both timely and timeless" proved to be a hit. His show The Open Road currently airs Sunday nights from 9-Midnight. Through the years Gary has hosted live performances and interviews with musical greats ranging from Brian Wilson and Elmer Bernstein to Wilco and The Flaming Lips. In 1998 Gary broke into the Music Supervision game and tackled the movie Varsity Blues, resulting in a #1 box office hit and a soundtrack album certified gold. At the turn of the century Gary, along with friend and fellow music supervisor Thomas Golubic oversaw the music for the HBO original series Six Feet Under and were nominated for Grammy Awards for producing both volumes of the soundtracks.
