Carson
Cooper Worked in Tampa Bay commercial radio for two
decades, starting at WSRZ 102 1/2 in Sarasota, in August 1981.
Remained at that same frequency (for the most part) until October
1999.
Highlights included morning with Nick Van
Cleve -- then Charlie Logan, Russ Albums, and Cynthia Clarc. Now
employed by WUSF-FM in Tampa (NPR) as local host of Morning Edition
(news.) Am. Also, the Webmaster and programming co-conspirator
of Jimmy Buffett's Radio Margaritaville. Steve Huntington (another Whatever Happened
To radio guy) is the program director. Pinch me. Life is great.
UPDATE: Aug 1st 2018
WUSF host Carson Cooper passed away. He was a very nice person with a great, folksy radio voice talent. He'll be missed...
