Career

At WBAI, Efron was a frequent guest on Steve Post's & Bob Fass's shows, along with left-wing/counter-culture figures such as Paul Krassner.[2] One memorable broadcast had Efron and Krassner filling in for the vacationing Steve Post, and identifying themselves as Columbia University students who had taken the station over as part of the Columbia University protests of 1968. Although regular listeners were very familiar with the voices of Krassner and Efron, many listeners were not. NYPD officers responded three different times during the broadcast in response to reports from listeners who thought the "takeover" was a legitimate event. Efron also produced features such as A Satirical View.[3]

Marshall Efron was the author of a number of children's works such as Bible Stories You Can't Forget: No Matter How Hard You Try.[4]

He also starred in the irregularly scheduled Sunday morning television program Marshall Efron's Illustrated, Simplified, and Painless Sunday School on CBS from 1973 to 1977.[5] In this show, Efron played all of the parts, including Adam, Eve, God and the Snake in the Garden of Eden, and the Three Wise Men in the story of Christmas.[6]

Death

Efron died at the age of 81 on September 30, 2019, at the Lillian Booth Actors Home in Englewood, New Jersey.[7]
