Cliff Saunders

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Cliff Saunders (Clifford Scott Saunders) is an American Sports-Talk Radio personality based out of Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Saunders currently hosts The Gary and Cliff Show with former Green Bay Packer and University of Wisconsin football player Gary Ellerson from 2p-6p CDT on WSSP-AM.

Saunders was born in New York City and attended Buffalo State College. Upon graduation, he began working in sports-talk radio as a stringer for the now defunct Sports Phone News Service, and then as a producer and host for WGR-AM in Buffalo.

He moved up the ranks quickly, getting a job as producer for The Fabulous Sports Babe show on ESPN and then ABC Radio. Following that stint, he moved on to Sporting News Radio in Chicago.

After being released by SNR, he obtained a job with WSSP-AM in Milwaukee, as mid-day/ weekend host and the producer for former SNR colleague Peter Brown (who was doing 2-6p at the time). When Brown was released by the station in late 2006, Saunders' mid-day show was moved to afternoons where it's remained ever since.

Saunders and his wife Cheryl, live in the Milwaukee suburb of Brookfield, WI.
