Besides presenting the 'all night show' on WABC, Bob Cruz
became the permanent replacement for Dan Ingram when the latter was not
available, reportedly because his voice resembled that of Dan
Ingram. Bob Cruz later took over afternoons in 1979 when Dan Ingram
moved to morning drive. Bob Cruz left WABC in March of 1981, but
remained in New York for a time doing voice-over work for ABCs
20/20.
