Claudia Marshall has been the morning host on WFUV since 2001. Friday will be her last day. On the air today, Marshall said, ?After twelve years of the 3:30 a.m. alarm, it's simply time to move on. I have some exciting things in the works and when the time is right, I'll share them. I've had opportunities here that I would not have had at any other radio station on earth."
WFUV?s evening host Corny O?Connell (an occasional substitute for Claudia in the past) will step in to do mornings from 5 to 10 a.m. on an interim basis while WFUV conducts a national search for its next morning show host. He will continue the popular Question of the Day feature in the 9 o?clock hour. WFUV fill-in hosts Eric Holland and Carmel Holt will share the evening duties in the meantime.
"WFUV's listeners have always appreciated Claudia's smarts, friendly style, and warmth on the microphone," said General Manager Chuck Singleton. ?We?ll certainly miss her gift for connecting with listeners and artists, and we wish her the best. It?s a rare opening at WFUV, and we?ll take this opportunity to consider how we can build on Claudia?s success."
