The name "Baba Booey" came from an arguement with Howard Stern over the cartoon character name "Baba Looie", a donkey in a sombrero from the "Quick Draw McGraw" cartoon. Gary insisted that the correct name was Booey not Looie, and so, the joke (and nickname) began.
He went to Bose's Technical school for photography. He also, pre-Stern show, worked at Hoolihans restaurant and at a record store.
As a young man and trying to break into show business, briefly went by the name Gary Goldstein.
