KFI's morning talk show host Bill Handel grins from the dais at the Salute to Radio luncheon as he recalls how he was "fired" from KABC, his first radio job. An attorney by training, Handel said he never expected to be a member of the Radio community. (Don King photo) |
Two members of the Salute to Radio dais were KOST's Mark Wallengren and KTWV's Keri Tombazian, both of whom told how unlikely it appeared they would find successful careers in the radio industry. Keri revealed how being a woman air personality took the assistance of several mentors along the way toward success. (David Keeler photo) |
