Alan was raised in Lynbrook, New York, on Long Island, and after matriculating from a public high school he enrolled at Ithaca College, and then transferred to the School of Communications at Hofstra University, from where he graduated with a Bachelor of Arts degree.

Before his political contributions on radio, Alan was firstly a stand-up comedian, finding engagement on various stations in New York and Boston, including WABC, WNBC, WEVD, WEZE and WZLX. He was hired full time firstly by WABC, where he did the morning drive time slot, under the pseudonym W Alan B.Colmes, then in 1987 he moved to WNBC, however, just a year later his career at WNBC was cut short as NBC decided to shut down the station. He then started Daynet with several other radio hosts, a nationally syndicated station, which was ultimately sold to Major Networks in 1994. Alan had his own show on the radio, then after the sale to Major Networks, his show was picked up by Fox News Radio.
