Station Alumni
KLBM's long-term air personalities of the past include Warren Curry, who was on the air from the 1950s to the late 1970s, and continued as chief engineer until the early 1990s. Another enduring KLBM "voice" was that of Ken Lillard, who owned the station for more than 40 years before selling it and retiring in 1984. Lillard was a regular on-air announcer from the 1940s to the 1960s, and continued producing advertising spots and special programming until his retirement. He died in March 2008.

Famous quotes containing the word station:
“How soon country people forget. When they fall in love with a city it is forever, and it is like forever. As though there never was a time when they didn’t love it. The minute they arrive at the train station or get off the ferry and glimpse the wide streets and the wasteful lamps lighting them, they know they are born for it. There, in a city, they are not so much new as themselves: their stronger, riskier selves.”
—Toni Morrison (b. 1931)
