Hey all. I graduated from Galesburg-Augusta High in 1971, and worked as a freelance photographer/writer, radio host and other assorted jobs. I began working in radio at KRML, in Carmel, California. This was the radio station featured in the movie "Play Misty For Me", in which Clint Eastwood plays a radio D.J. who is stalked by a female listener. I'm currently semi-retired, working at WBCK and living the dream.
