BOB EATMAN, the longtime broadcast talent agent whose client roster included some of the radio industry's most familiar names, died SUNDAY (9/25) of cancer. He was 65.
EATMAN represented a wide range of radio morning hosts over the years, including OPIE AND ANTHONY, MANCOW MULLER, ROVER, DON GERONIMO, and THE REGULAR GUYS. He formed his agency in 1991 after practicing law in CHICAGO and then working with the AFTRA, SAG, and AGMA unions and FOX BROADCASTING COMPANY.
With a heavy heart I announce the passing of Super Agent Robert Eatman. For 20 yrs he guided me w/ honor in a business filled w/ dishonesty

— Rover (@RoverRadio) September 25, 2017RIP Bob Eatman. He was a beautiful, gentle person who was incapable of lying. He played the French horn and I loved him anyway.
