Mike Breen

Mike Breen seemed destined for a career in sports. He became a dedicated Knicks fan while growing up in New York. Although he played basketball himself, he discovered that his talents lay in a related field--announcing games. After getting his start reporting about sports and other news, his big break came from a morning radio show. Soon Mike was calling games on ESPN alongside one of his childhood idols. Part of the Award-Winning Sports Broadcasters series, Mike Breen tells the story of a boy from Yonkers who grew up to become one of the most recognizable voices in basketball.
