Peter Tripp was a prominent Top 40 radio personality best known for his 201-hour wakeathon in 1959, which he conducted without sleep to aid the March of Dimes. His career suffered after he became involved in a payola scandal in 1960, which led to a conviction for commercial bribery. Following the scandal, he struggled to regain success in radio, transitioning into physical fitness sales, motivational speaking, writing, and stockbrokering. Tripp's significant contributions to broadcasting include pioneering the Top 40 format and he spent over two decades in the industry before retiring to Palm Springs.
