About the author (1996)

Andrew Stuart McLean was born in Montreal, Canada on April 19, 1948. He received a bachelor's degree from Sir George Williams University in 1971. He moved into radio broadcasting after managing a Canadian Broadcasting Corporation journalist's successful campaign for the Montreal City Council. His early career involved producing documentaries for Sunday Morning, a current affairs program on the CBC's main English radio network. He was best known for his long-running weekly variety radio show The Vinyl Café. The show was first broadcast in the summer of 1994 and stopped production in late 2015 because of his cancer diagnosis. He wrote 11 books of stories from the program and won the Stephen Leacock Memorial Medal for Humour three times. He taught journalism at Ryerson University in Toronto for 20 years. He died on February 15, 2017 at the age of 68.
