Radio presenter, Robin Alexander known by his listeners for signing on as “the minister of midnight affairs”, suffered a heart attack and died at his home in Parktown North, Johannesburg last week.
He played a huge role in shaping the South African radio landscape during a career of more than 40 years. Alexander’s big break came in 1964 as one of the founding presenters on the SABC’s new FM station Radio Highveld (now Primedia’s 94.7 Highveld Stereo). After the SABC’s restructuring post-1994, he was let go and Alexander moved on to community radio stations Radio Today and Cani FM.
