Kupcinet was born the youngest of four children to Russian immigrants in the North Lawndale section of Chicago. While attending high school, he became editor of the school newspaper and the senior class president. He eventually won a football scholarship to Northwestern University, but a scuffle with another student led to him transferring to the University of North Dakota. Upon graduating college, Kupcinet was drafted by the Philadelphia Eagles.[2] His football career was cut short due to a shoulder injury which led him to take a job as a sports writer for the Chicago Daily Times (now known as the Chicago Sun-Times) in 1935.[3]
