Leah (Barbara Papp)'s Story

Life Hey everyone! As some of my former classmates would've guessed, I never could really shut the hell up so I decided to just basically run my mouth for a living. What a scam! I spent 10 years on the air at WFIR in Roanoke where among other things, I hosted a talk show, was a D.J., and even went into sales when I got bored and tired of being broke. I then went to K92 when Russ Brown and David Lee Michaels came back for Round #2 in '92 and left for California 2 years later when they all got fired and K92 took a dive. I ended up in Los Angeles and through a few interesting coincidences, landed a job doing afternoons on STAR 98.7 where I was teamed up with Rick Stacey. I eventually moved to nights alone and stayed for the next 5 years. AH, the life of Los Angeles. I rescued a horse in 1996 and rode him almost daily in Griffith Park which is just across the street from where I lived in Burbank. I took up rollerblading and when I went blonde, I lost my mind and married a jazz musician. I call it my "Britney Spears marriage". (Referring to her FIRST marriage...or maybe both) Mine lasted longer than hers, b...Expand for more
ut was equally as stupid. As you can see, I am a brunette again. I then went to work on the radio station of my dreams. 102.7 KIIS FM. During my 3 years at KIIS, I did everything from overnights to fill-in guest host with Rick Dees. Although Rick and I have both since left KIIS-FM I am honored to count him as one of my closest friends and am fortunate enough to work with him on his syndicated show "The Weekly Top 40". Along with that, I could no longer stand the fact that I had so much to say and the records basically got in the way. So, I became the fulltime Evening News Anchor on KFI AM 640 during a show hosted by an incredibly talented guy named John Ziegler. As this business goes, all good things must come to an end sometime. In November, 2007, Ziegler was fired and I continued on until I decided to make a change. By April, 2008, I had rescued two more horses and returned to the South. Land of sweet tea and where English is still the spoken language. Find me at wercfm.com and on Birmingham's Morning News at 105.5. Hope everyone is doing well and would love to catch up after all these years. :)
