WFPL's Susan Sweeney Crum Announces Retirement
RADIO ONLINE | Monday, March 5, 2018 |
Longtime Louisville Public Media host Susan Sweeney Crum will retire from WFPL-FM later this year after 12 years with the station. Crum, who began as the local host of "All Things Considered" in 2006, will host her last broadcast on April 16. She began her news career at WHAS, where she spent three-and-a-half years before moving to WHAS-TV. Crum's more than 30 years of broadcast news experience also included 15 years at WDRB-TV. While at 89.3 WFPL, Crum hosted weekday afternoons and helped foster LPM's dramatic audience growth for news programming.
"I came to work here in January 2006 thinking this might be fun to do for a few years, and here I am 12 years later. This has been a great chapter in my life," said Crum. "I want to thank everyone at Louisville Public Media for a wonderful 12 years, for great friendships and a sense of purpose in our community."
"We're all going to miss Susan's rich presence and unflappable poise on 89.3 WFPL," added LPM Director of Radio Daniel Gilliam. "We also owe Susan our gratitude for more than three decades of work in our city's media landscape, and we're honored she chose to spend the last 12 years of that working with Louisville Public Media."
