Matt Pinfield is set to make his first public appearance since he suffered a stroke this past January. The radio and television personality will host when Green Day gets a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.
Pinfield posting on X wrote, “Slowly but surely recovering… lots of physical therapy… Fighting my way back! One day at a time.”
Last month, Pinfield released his first public statement since the January 6 stroke (BMM 3/13), saying, “We were told I might not speak or walk again, and my voice is back, and I am doing five hours of physical therapy a day, and my walking continues to improve. There is nothing like my radio community. I love you all.”
Pinfield is known for his time hosting “120 Minutes” for MTV, a weekly music show, “New & Improved w/ Matt Pinfield” on 95.5 KLOS Los Angeles, and Westwood One’s “Flashback.”
At the time of his stroke, Pinfield was working at 88.5 The SoCal Sound, KCSN, Los Angeles.
