parlayed her harassment of WJC (causing SS intervention) into a fulltime RADIO gig at WLS, the big wingnut station in chicago
here' her autobio, which gives wonderful insight into what a truly delusional psycho she is
she begins with some boring crap, then segues thusly, somehow believing that OUR world centers around her as much as hers does
The rest you probably remember...
I was born on June 11th (remember the date!) in New York to Joe Byrne, a retired NYC cop from Brooklyn and Rosaleen, a native of Ireland. I attended Catholic grade school, high school (ranked #1 in my graduating class...impressed?) and Fordham University where I made the Dean's List. (Now you're impressed!) However, I soon was introduced to the world of college partying and fell from grace. I also became very involved at my college radio station, WFUV, a 50,000 watt FM station in New York, where I hosted a music show and did news. The show was nominated for a Marconi Award for Outstanding Programming Achievement in 1993.
While in college, I interned at WABC-TV Eyewitness News. I briefly interned at HBO (answering wacky viewer mail) and Radio Today. (I also supplemented my income with the traditional job at the Gap...as the afternoon store greeter: "Hi...welcome to the Gap!")
Upon graduation, I realized I was qualified to do nothing. My first real radio job was in syndication--calling radio stations and asking program directors to air really crappy radio shows. I hated it. After doing radio sales for almost a year, I became the producer of The Working Mom on the Run, a nationally syndicated talk show, airing on over 300 stations, named the best syndicated talk show by the American Women in Radio and Television Foundation three years in a row from 1994-1997. I was also nominated as the Best Radio Talk Show Producer from Talkers Magazine in 1996.
From New York, I moved to Orlando and became the Assistant Program Director and afternoon producer at NewsTalk 580 WDBO. I also hosted an evening talk show from 6-8pm.
When my angry, yelling face got photographed for US News & World Report during a Clinton protest that I organized, I packed up and moved to Chicago...which brings me to today.http://www.wlsam.com/showdj.asp?djid=1666
