Steve: What was
your favorite radio station growing up?
Lisa: WABC and WNEW-FM!
Steve: What’d you think when you heard about working at Howard
100 News?
Lisa: Didn’t think twice. Just said what time
should I show up. It’s like being asked to join the Yankees.
Steve: Our news product is rather unconventional. Your thoughts
about it?
Lisa: Love it!!!
Steve: Ever get nervous going into the lions’ den that
is the Howard Stern show?
Lisa: Working in hip-hop the past 10 years was a
great training ground. I’m ready for anything.
Steve: You play in a chamber orchestra I believe. What instrument
do you play? Do you perform in public? Tell us about the music and
how beautiful it is.
Lisa: I played the violin from 8 years old until
I graduated college and then stopped! I missed it very much and
decided to try again six years ago. It all came back. I joined an
adult chamber music program here in NYC. Each semester we have to
perform in a recital at the music school. That’s it. No one’s
heard me play, except my cousin Steven who paid me $1. I thought
it was such a funny offer, I played for him.
Steve: Anything else you think we should add?
Lisa: Hope the Howard 100 listeners are having as
much fun listening, as I am working here.
Steve: Thank you Lisa.
Lisa: Anytime.
Steve: Why do you like working in the media?
Lisa: I love knowing I could make a difference. From
making someone laugh to informing them on an important story.
