On-Air Personalities

Kris Pierce

Kris has spent over half her life in front of a microphone. She has enjoyed a career spanning all formats. Highlights include being News Director for many radio stations, Program Director for a non-commercial News/Classical station, and even a short lived stint as a traffic reporter under the moniker “U-Turn Laverne.” Kris enjoys shuttling her 4 children around, playing golf, attending symphony concerts and practicing yoga. Her favorite piece of music is the “Flower Duet,” by Leo Delibes and her favorite symphony is Prokofiev’s 5th.

Don Spencer

Don was born and raised in New England. His favorite place is the top of Mt. Washington, “Home of the World’s Worst Weather.” Don’s favorite selections from classical music are Tchaikovsky’s 1812 Overture, Rossini’s William Tell Overture, and any symphony by Mozart, Beethoven or Brahms. Between programs on the Classical Station I love to play golf, hike and bike. Recently I’ve started to re-learn everything I forgot about playing the piano and trombone. I’m also a big fan of Count Basie-style swing music, Frank Sinatra and Tony Bennett.

Larry King

Larry King, sometimes known as The Real Larry King since that is his real name, grew up outside of New York City where he was inspired by the radio stations and on-air personalities he heard as a child. Larry was also interested in music, especially classical and jazz. He was first trumpet in his high school band, played in his town’s concert band and symphony orchestra, and won a prestigious student music award from Lincoln Center in New York. He graduated from Ohio Wesleyan University, majring in both Music and Speech/Communication and sang in the college’s glee club that toured both in the United States and South America. It was during his junior year that Larry became involved with the college radio station. His professional broadcasting experience has been at radio stations on Cape Cod and Boston. His favorite classical composer is Beethoven and his favorite orchestra is the Boston Symphony. Larry’s high school aged son David is first ‘cellist in his award-winning high school string ensemble that performed at Carnegie Hall in New York City in April, 2006.
