Lee Michaels
Peabody Award-Winning Radio Veteran
Peabody award-winning radio veteran, Lee Michaels’ love of radio began at the tender age of 12. By 15, he had his own radio station and broadcasted live from his childhood bedroom. Having found his passion early in life, Lee’s visionary career has included top ratings as a disc jockey, program director, and/or operations manager in every market he’s worked. Highlights of his career include time in New York City (99X/WXLO-FM, WBLS-FM), Chicago (WBMX now WVAZ-FM/V-103 and WGCI-FM), San Francisco (KMEL-FM), and Los Angeles (KJLH-FM).
