Harry Kramer (born February 9, 1911 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania â€"

died January 23, 1996 in Sarasota, Florida) was an American radio and

television announcer, better known as the "Voice of CBS News."Kramer

was an announcer with CBS in New York for 30 years, starting in the

early 1940s. His radio credits included News of the World, Viva

América, and Hearthstone of the Death Squad. On television, Kramer

was an announcer on the 1951 version of Winner Take All, but his main

fame came from two places: first, his stint as announcer for the

daytime soap opera The Edge of Night between 1957 and 1972; and

secondly, his run as announcer on the CBS Evening News with Walter

Cronkite from 1962 to 1971. Kramer was also announcer for coverage of

political conventions, space launches, assassinations, and other major

stories that unfolded during that period. His run as announcer for CBS

ended around the time he was succeeded as The Edge of Night announcer

by Hal Simms, and as CBS Evening News announcer by Bob Hite.Kramer

died after a short illness at age 84.
