- Staff announcer with NBC on the West Coast (first in Hollywood, then Burbank) from 1950 until his death.
- Known earlier in his career as Don Rickles, he later formalized his name to avoid confusion with the insult comic Don Rickles. This Rickles would later make a famous - and rare - on-camera appearance on Episode dated 11 May 1978 (1978) from Tomorrow Coast to Coast (1973).
- He was the announcer for the long-running Saturday night movie that aired on NBC from the start of the 1961/62 regular season through the 1977/78 season.
