Jean Parker "Shep" Shepherd Jr. was an American storyteller, humorist, radio and TV personality, writer, and actor. With a career that spanned decades, Shepherd is known for the film A Christmas Story (1983), which he narrated and co-scripted on the basis of his own semi-autobiographical stories.
Really brought me back to my teenage years when I'd listen to Shep on WOR NY nightly. One of the finest humorists I've read or heard. Little slice of life of 1960's USA.
