Book Bob Costas through The Keynote Curators
Biography
One of the most recognized faces and voices in sport casting, Bob Costas has covered nearly every major sports landmark within the past 25 years. His quick wit, thoughtful insights, and charm have made him a household favorite; it’s no wonder then, that he has hosted eleven Olympics, seven World Series, and ten NBA finals.
As a child listening to sports casts, Costas knew he wanted to be a broadcaster, later stating to the Philadelphia Daily News that: “I always thought the broadcaster was as much a part of the game as the game itself.”
He left his communications major at Syracuse University before graduating when he was offered a job as the play-by-play voice of the St. Louis ABA Spirits by radio giant KMOX. Soon after he also became the radio voice of the University of Missouri basketball team. His passion for sports and ability to apply interesting trivia to his articulate announcing quickly got him noticed by CBS and later NBC.
Today Costas can be seen on NBC’s weekly studio show Football Night in America. He demonstrates his skill as an interviewer in the regular MLB show Studio 42 with Bob Costas.
