Wink Martindale, the iconic game show host and radio personality whose career spanned more than seven decades and who helped introduce Elvis Presley to the world, died Tuesday in Rancho Mirage, California, according to his publicist. He was 91.
Born Winston Conrad Martindale on Dec. 4, 1933, in Jackson, Tennessee, Martindale began working in radio at age 17 after a Sunday school teacher helped him land his first job at a 250-watt station.
