Tell me a bio of Howard Cosell.
Howard Cosell (April 25, 1918 – April 24, 1995) was an American sports journalist and broadcaster, best known for his work with ABC Sports from the late 1960s through the 1980s. Cosell's brash, opinionated style and distinctive voice made him one of the most recognizable and controversial figures in sports broadcasting.

Born in Winston-Salem, North Carolina, Cosell grew up in the Bronx, New York City. He attended the University of Miami, where he was a member of the debate team and the football team. After graduating in 1940, Cosell served in the U.S. Army during World War II as a radio announcer.

After the war, Cosell worked as a lawyer, but he soon became disillusioned with the profession and turned to broadcasting. He began his career in radio, working for various stations in New York City. In the late 1950s, he moved to television, working as a sports announcer for local stations and then for the National Football League (NFL).

In 1964, Cosell joined ABC Sports as a commentator for the network's coverage of boxing matches. He quickly gained a reputation for his outspoken commentary and his ability to generate controversy. In 1970, Cosell became the play-by-play announcer for Monday Night Football, the NFL game that ABC broadcast each week. Cosell's commentary on Monday Night Football was often controversial, but it helped make the show a ratings success.

Cosell was also known for his work on Wide World of Sports, ABC's weekly sports anthology series. He covered a wide range of sports and events for the show, from the Olympics to the World Series.

In addition to his work in sports broadcasting, Cosell was a frequent guest on talk shows and a regular panelist on the game show To Tell the Truth. He was also a published author, writing several books on sports and current events.

Cosell retired from broadcasting in 1985, but he continued to make occasional appearances on television and radio. He died on April 24, 1995, just one day before his 77th birthday. Cosell was posthumously inducted into the Sports Broadcasting Hall of Fame in 1996.
