George 'Hound Dog' Lorenz was a pioneering radio DJ in the 1950s, known for being one of the first to introduce rhythm and blues and early rock 'n' roll to mainstream audiences. His popular radio show featured artists like Little Richard, Elvis Presley, Sam Cooke, Clyde McFatter, and Fats Domino. Lorenz's bold programming choices helped break racial barriers in music, promoting African American artists to wider audiences. Remembered as a trailblazer in the radio industry, his influence helped to shape the direction of rock 'n' roll as a whole.
