Born in Willimantic, Connecticut, Norris is the son of Valija and Henry Nukis who were Latvian immigrants.

Eric Fred Norris (born Fred Leo Nukis; July 9, 1955) is an American radio personality known for being the longest-tenured staff member of The Howard Stern Show aside from Stern himself.

"I'd like to state for the record that every person on this show of Howard's, even Robin, at least had a father figure to guide them," he says.

Jackie Martling referred to him as an alien and Colin Quinn told Gary Dell'Abate that he was "uglier than Fred's thoughts" also stating that he looked like "a retarded Gary Oldman."

When Norris announced on the show in May 2002 that his wife Allison had become pregnant by means other than sexual intercourse, fellow Stern staffer Robin Quivers stated that she knew if Fred was going to have a child it would "have to be a science project."
