Susie Q

Wisconsin born, RI raised, current PA transplant.

Loved radio and music since I can remember; heavily influenced by WPRO-FM as a teenager. Started dabbling in college radio in 1980; have been on the air off and on since then in Northwestern PA.

• Favorite music as a teen included the Beatles, the Rolling Stones, the Eagles, the Doobie Brothers, Billy Joel – you get the idea.
• Favorite music to learn about: the blues – truly, the roots of rock and roll.
• Favorite music to learn not to hate: country – it’s not as bad as you think.

I now consider myself evolved and willing to listen to most any music, but will always be a student.

You may remember me as Susan Davis, Marie Stevens, Susan Bryant, Susie Kennedy or even Ann Phibian.

In my various incarnations over the years, I’ve had the opportunity to represent some great community organizations and businesses, which is the single biggest advantage to working in local radio.

One of my proudest moments: Co-hosting the Meadville Area Jaycees Halloween Parade with morning man Dave Hanahan for the last three years.
