Dean Spratt (1952–2007) was an American traffic reporter. He was one of eight children born to Mary and Ray Spratt. He grew up in Minneapolis, MN. Blind from birth Spratt attended St. Cloud State University where he studied communications. In November 1981, Spratt became the first traffic reporter at WCCO-AM radio, as well as the first blind traffic reporter in the country. Spratt worked primarily out of an office in his home that he transformed into a sound booth and filled it with police scanners, telephones, radio equipment, and later computers.
