Garry Meier is a Chicago-based radio talk show host, although he has been off the air since January of 2004.
Meier started out as a DJ at WFYR in 1973, then moved to WYEN in 1974. He left WYEN in 1977 and joined the Loop in 1977 as their overnight jock, where he eventually was teamed up with morning man Steve Dahl in 1979 to be his sidekick and years later they were billed as "Steve & Garry". During their tenure at the Loop (1979-81), the team was number one and continued that success at WLS AM & FM from 1981 through 1986 in afternoon drive. In 1986 they returned to WLUP the Loop AM 1000 and then FM 97.9. They later shifted back to mornings on WLUP until Garry quit the show in 1993 due to personal issues with his partner. One of Steve and Garry's most famous events was Disco Demolition July 12, 1979.
After leaving the "Steve & Garry" show, Meier hosted his own show on the Loop for one year. In 1994, Meier left the Loop to join WGN-TV in Chicago as a feature reporter on their morning show. He left the show in 1995 to join WLS-AM, partnering with Roe Conn in 1996. The "Roe & Garry" show enjoyed top ratings through their 8 year run.
On Friday August 18th, 2006, during a remote broadcast by Dahl, Meier stopped by to visit on WCKG/FM Elmwood Park/Chicago.
