10 Questions with ... Valerie AndertonBRIEF CAREER SYNOPSIS:
I got my start at WKDF/Nashville, doing anything and everything there. I moved on to WBUZ/Nashville and WQZQ/Nashville, full time at both stations, eventually. After a few years, I went down the road to Knoxville, to WNFZ for 10 years, then moved down the hall to WJXB, where I’m close to 10 years already.
1. How would you describe your first radio gig?
I was live at night on the Rock station and voicetracked the midday on the Top 40 – I was very new to radio at the time. It was interesting, but I AM very grateful for my time there.
2. What led you to a career in radio?
It sounds so cliché, but I just always wanted to do it. There were some legendary Nashville personalities that I really looked up to, like Coyote McCloud, but I think the bug really bit me on a senior trip to the beach.
