Johnny Otis - remaining active as a writer, performer, and producer - also began a radio career in the early fiftees, and became a popular disc jockey in southern California for KPFA. This radio broadcast success led to a weekly half-hour live variety program on television in 1955, also called the The Johnny Otis Show, that stayed on for eight years. According to Otis' autobiography, Ray featured in one of these tv shows in 1955.
