WRMM-FM (WARM 101.3)'s Tony Infantino is celebrating 45 years on the air in Rochester, NY. At just 23, he started waking Rochester up and for the past 28 years, Stephens Media Group's WARM 101.3 has been home for Infantino's morning show, weekdays from 5:30-10am. "I love doing what I do so much, I'll work until they escort me out of the building," said Infantino.

"We're planning a big celebration to acknowledge Tony Infantino's contributions to radio in Rochester and service and entertainment to our listeners. Waking up with Tony Infantino is as much a part of our area as Rochester's famous Garbage Plate," said WARM 101.3's Operations Manager and afternoon host Mike McCoy.

General Manager Mike Ninnie added, "Few people in our industry reach such a distinguished landmark in their careers. For all Tony does, undoubtedly the chemistry created by him and co-hosts Kristie Credit and Nikki Rudd creates a dynamic, fresh approach to each new day, every single morning. It's an honor to work with Tony Infantino, a Rochester radio legend."

Stephens Media Group's Vice President of Programming and Technology Bob Thornton said, "Tony represents what makes radio strong and vibrant in today's media landscape- the ability to make a connection and build a relationship with an audience. He's proven that an engaging, personal morning show stands the test of time."
