Bob Emery (broadcaster)

Clair Robert "Bob" Emery (1897–1982), known professionally as Big Brother Bob Emery, was a radio and television pioneer and children's show host. He is best known for his pioneer late-1940s network television show, ''Small Fry Club'', and for his long career as a local broadcaster in Boston before and after that.
==Early life and career==
Emery was born on August 12, 1897〔 〕 in Abington, Massachusetts. His father James was a farmer, and he was sent to the Farm and Trade School on Thompson's Island, from which he graduated in 1912. He then attended North Abington High School, but did not graduate. 〔 Joseph Dinneen. "How Bob Emery Became Big Brother to 12,000 Youngsters." ''Boston Globe'', March 1, 1925, p. E6. 〕
In early 1924, Emery started at radio station WGI in Medford Hillside, Massachusetts, which had been one of the first American radio stations to broadcast regular programming (in 1919, under the callsign 1XE). Emery was a singer and announcer (identifying himself on the air by his initials "CRE", a holdover from ham radio common in early commercial radio) there, then began doing a children's show. In 1924, nearly every radio station had a man or woman who told bed-time stories to the kids, and Boston radio had several. Bob Emery would become the best known, going on to a career in both radio and TV that lasted from the early 1920s till he retired in the late 1960s. When Emery first put the show on the air, it was known as the "Big Brother Club" (this was long before the 1949 publication of the novel ''Nineteen Eighty-Four'' which lent a sinister cast to the term "Big Brother"; the meaning then was just an affectionate older mentor).
WGI was undergoing financial difficulties (it folded in 1925), so in late September 1924 Emery moved to a new Boston station, WEEI, owned by the Edison Electric Illuminating Company. He did his show there from late September 1924 until the early 1930s.
