Hometown: Swarthmore, PA (just outside Philadelphia)

First concert: Stephen Stills at The Spectrum in Philadelphia

Favorite food: I’m always good for a thin crust pizza. And I do mean always!

Name one tune that’s in "Recently played" on your iPod: "Suddenly I See" – K.T. Tunstall (opening title theme from" The Devil Wears Prada")

Last book read: Tearing Down the Wall of Sound – The Rise & Fall of Phil Spector

Last movie seen: Michael Moore’s "Sicko"

Current hobby: I’m in the process of identifying and digitizing old family photos. There must be thousands, and they go back to my Great Great Grandparents!

Favorite childhood memory about your mother or father: All the great family road trips we took when my sister and I were kids – Niagara Falls, New York, Williamsburg. We were very lucky because it’s quite a long list of destinations. Now that I’m a parent, I nominate MY parents for sainthood for their patience.

What makes you laugh? Humor that’s more "off the wall" or "skewed". I miss Gary Larson. One of my favorite lines comes from comedian Steven Wright, who asked "If you could drive faster than the speed of light, would your headlights work?" Steven Wright? Meet Stephen Hawking.

Cats or dogs? I love OUR cats. I love OTHER people’s dogs.

What celebrity crushes did you have as a teenager? Jaclyn Smith, despite the fact that didn’t think much of "Charlie’s Angels", the show.

Latest accomplishment: I woke up at three this morning. What time did YOU get out of bed?

Why I do what I do: That’s hard to pinpoint because I never imagined doing anything else. I had my own radio heroes growing up in Philadelphia, and worked at a Philly radio station when I was still in High School. The pull into radio started with me at a very early age, 6 or 7. The listener’s a friend of mine.
