     Bob Kingsley
    Big Time Sat.

Kingsley rose to national prominence in 1974 when he became the producer of the nationally syndicated "ACC," an up-and-coming countdown program started a year earlier by Casey Kasem and Don Bustany. Kingsley succeeded the program's original host, Don Bowman, in 1978.

Under his watch, Kingsley molded "ACC" into a top-rated syndicated radio program, winning numerous awards. That list includes Billboard magazine's "Network/Syndicated Program of the Year: Country" for 16 years in a row, the only air personality and music program in any format to achieve this continued success. Kingsley won Country Music Association National Broadcast Personality of the Year honors in 2001 and 2003.

Before joining ACC, Kingsley was the program director at KLAC, a country music radio station in Los Angeles, California. A veteran of the United States Air Force, he auditioned for an announcer spot on Armed Forces Radio Station TFK (American Forces Network). Following his Air Force stint, Kingsley honed his skills at several radio stations.

As of 2006 Kingsley has signed a new distribution deal with Jones Radio Network. The new countdown program is called Bob Kingsley's Country Top 40.
