LaDona Harvey

Bonneville/Phoenix names LaDona Harvey as the new co-host for Arizona's Morning News on News/Talk KTAR-FM, starting January 13. She's set to replace Jayme West, who recently retired. Harvey comes to Phoenix following a successful tenure at KOGO (Newsradio 600) in San Diego, where she hosted San Diego's Morning News for more than a decade. Her return to Arizona marks a significant homecoming as she takes on new responsibilities while caring for her father.

Bonneville International/Phoenix Senior Vice President and Market Manager Ryan Hatch expressed enthusiasm about Harvey's addition to the team. "LaDona is a natural storyteller with an infectious personality and a deep passion for connecting with the community," said Hatch.

Harvey will join Jim Sharpe in anchoring the morning news program. "I am thrilled to be back home in Arizona, joining the finest news team in the Valley at KTAR," Harvey stated. She looks forward to engaging with the Phoenix community and sharing stories that impact listeners' lives and livelihoods.
