Ted Heusel will be inducted into the Michigan Association of Broadcasters Hall of Fame on August 9th. Ted's career spanned more than 50 years on the air, all of it in Ann Arbor and most of it on three stations, WOIA, WPAG and WAAM. Ted is a talk radio pioneer who has been a mentor and inspiration to several generations of broadcasters. He had the chops to become a national celebrity but chose instead a life of community service in his beloved A2. In addition to his work as a broadcast journalist, he was a talented actor and director who was involved in the Civic Theater. He also was a successful politician, bringing a conservative voice to the Ann Arbor School Board. He's indirectly responsible for keener13.com, having given your curator his first radio gig back in 1970.
