Popular Public Radio Commentator on the Air in June
PASADENA March 23 - KPCC 89.3 FM is proud to announce that humorist Sandra Tsing Loh will be joining the station's ranks as a regular weekly commentator. Loh's essays will begin appearing on KPCC in June.
Besides being a public radio commentator, Loh is a solo performer and writer. Her latest one-woman show was "Sugar Plum Fairy," performed at the Geffen Playhouse last Christmas. She is the author of "A Year in Van Nuys," "Depth Takes a Holiday: Essays from Lesser Los Angeles," "Aliens in America," and "If You Lived Here, You'd Be Home By Now."
"We're thrilled to have someone of Sandra's caliber join the KPCC family, said Bill Davis, President and CEO of Southern California Public Radio. "While she's made a lot of people laugh over the years, her essays have considerable depth and insight as well. So, we're pleased that we’ll be able to keep her on the air for her fans in southern California."
"KPCC is a wonderful station and the staff is great," said Loh. "I'm very much looking forward to continuing my commentaries there in June, after a short but hopefully restful hiatus."
Besides joining KPCC, Loh will continue doing a monthly radio commentary on the national business program "Marketplace," which airs on KPCC weekdays at 3 pm and 6:30 pm.
KPCC is the flagship station of Southern California Public Radio. Along with Morning Edition, it airs NPR's other signature news and talk programs, as well as KPCC's Talk of the City with Kitty Felde weekdays from 2-3 pm, and AirTalk with Larry Mantle weekdays from 10 am-noon.
