Walter Lanier "Red" Barber (February 17, 1908 – October 22, 1992) was an American sports announcer and author. Nicknamed "The Ol' Redhead", he was primarily identified with broadcasts of Major League Baseball, calling play-by-play across four decades with the Cincinnati Reds (1934–1938), Brooklyn Dodgers (1939–1953), and New York Yankees (1954–1966). Like his fellow sportscasting pioneer Mel Allen, Barber also developed a niche calling college and professional American football in his primary market of New York City.

  • Walter Lanier « Red » Barber, né le 17 février 1908 à Columbus et mort le 22 octobre 1992 à Tallahassee, est un commentateur sportif radio et télévision qui officie durant quarante ans, principalement pour les Dodgers de Brooklyn et les Yankees de New York. Il est l'une des très grandes voix du baseball et reçoit, avec Mel Allen, le premier prix Ford C. Frick en 1978. Son vocabulaire fleuri typique de son Mississippi natal fait merveille sur les ondes. Un joueur connaît ainsi trois âges pour Barber. Il avait droit à l'appellation « Mister » en début de carrière, puis passait au stade « Big fella » en milieu de carrière pour terminer comme « Old ».
