Howie Carr Biography
Howie Carr is one of the most popular and richest Radio Personality who was born on January 17, 1952 in Portland, Maine, United States. Carr was born in Portland, Maine, to Frances Stokes Sutton and Howard Louis Carr Sr. (1905–2008). His early childhood was split between Palm Beach, Florida, where his father worked at The Breakers Palm Beach and Greensboro, North Carolina, where his mother worked as a secretary to a local CEO.
In 1985, Carr won the National Magazine Award for Essays and Criticism. In television, he has been nominated for an Emmy Award.
Carr began taking whatever precautions he could to keep Whitey and Weeks off his tail. “The key to staying alive, I quickly figured out, was to avoid becoming a creature of habit. Wiseguys (or anyone else) who don’t mix up their routines are the ones who inevitably get caught ‘flat-footed,’ to use the old expression. I drove home a different way every evening. If possible, when I parked, I backed into the space so that, if I had to, I could flee more quickly. I stopped meeting face-to-face with anyone I didn’t know. I stayed out of bars, especially in Southie. Occasionally I’d sleep somewhere other than my house. The local cops kept an eye on my house in the pre-dawn hours. Slowly the noose began to tighten around Whitey’s neck and I relaxed somewhat. Whitey vanished in late 1994, but Weeks was still lurking about. At a tanning salon, he bragged to a Herald photographer that he knew that I had lived next to a graveyard. He mentioned nothing about any C-4 or high-powered rifles, but when he was arrested in 1999 his indirect threats against me were included in a DEA detention warrant.” “I was always looking over my shoulder,” Carr explained four years after Whitey’s arrest. “The day he went missing, I was driving down the street, and on the radio, they said he had disappeared. For the first time in ten years, I didn’t have to look over my shoulder.”
In 1998, Don Imus claimed Carr’s wife was having an affair with boxer Riddick Bowe. Mrs. Carr retained Alan Dershowitz as her lawyer. The parties reached an undisclosed settlement. In a 2007 column, Carr alleged that Imus’ statements were incited by Barnicle. According to Carr, Barnicle told Imus that Carr had said Imus “would die before his kid got out of high school”.
Carr began his career as a reporter for the Winston-Salem Journal, before returning to New England in 1979 as assistant city editor for the Boston Herald American (now the Boston Herald). From 1980 to 1981, he was the Boston City Hall bureau chief of the Herald American, and he later worked as the paper’s State House bureau chief. As a political reporter for WNEV (now WHDH) in 1982, his coverage of then-mayor Kevin White was so relentless that after the mayor announced he was not running again, he told The Boston Globe that one of the things he enjoyed most about his impending retirement was not having Carr chase him around the city.

In 2002, the Boston Herald and Carr were the subjects of a lawsuit by Superior Court Judge Ernest Murphy. The newspaper reported that Murphy had said of a fourteen-year-old rape victim: “She can’t go through life as a victim. She’s 14. She got raped. Tell her to get over it.” He was also alleged to have said of a 79-year-old robbery victim: “I don’t care if she’s 109.” Carr, in a front-page column on February 20, 2002, criticized Murphy for handing down lenient sentences in bail decisions in rape cases and included references to his daughters, wondering what Murphy would do if it was one of his offspring that had been the victim. Murphy denied all of the allegations and claimed the newspaper libeled him, ruining his physical and emotional health and damaging his career and reputation as a good man. Ultimately, Murphy won the suit and was awarded a $2.09 million payment. During the trial, when asked what his reaction was to the Carr column, Murphy had said he “wanted to kill him”.

For years Carr has criticized former Boston Globe and Herald guest columnist Mike Barnicle. In 1998, Barnicle resigned from the Boston Globe over allegations of plagiarism and fabrication of stories. A Boston Globe column by Steve Bailey stated that Carr gave out Barnicle’s home phone number, an allegation Carr denies. Barnicle called Carr “a pathetic figure”, and asked “Can you imagine being as consumed with envy and jealousy toward me for as long as it has consumed him?”
Billy Bulger’s power as President of the Massachusetts Senate intrigued Carr. He began to research both the politician and his gangster brother. Indeed, Carr’s arrival on Madison Street in Somerville, Massachusetts, in the late 1970s meant he was perfectly placed to do just that, for Somerville’s Marshall Motors garage (at 12 Marshall Street; now a church) was an early base of the Winter Hill Gang. In 1978, the second leader of the Winter Hill Gang, Howie Winter, who lived one street away from Carr, on Montrose Street, was jailed on federal “horse race fixing” charges. Bulger succeeded him, and remained the boss until 1995, the year after he fled Boston due to a pending federal indictment. Whitey was on the FBI’s Ten Most Wanted list from 1999 until his arrest in Santa Monica, California, on June 22, 2011. He had a $2 million bounty on his head. Kevin Weeks replaced Bulger but was arrested and imprisoned in 2000. He was released in 2005 after having served as a cooperating witness for the FBI.
