Biography

Donald Steele Revert, born on April 1, 1936, was a renowned disc jockey in the United States, enjoying widespread popularity from the mid-1960s until his retirement in May 1997, which was precipitated by health concerns.

Steele's distinctive persona, "The Real Don Steele," was coined by his program director, Steve Brown, at KOIL-AM in Omaha, Nebraska. Brown envisioned the moniker would resonate with listeners and set Steele apart from other radio personalities, thereby elevating his status within the industry.
