Personalities

[edit]

Camille Bohannon began her radio broadcasting career at KFUN. As a Highlands University student, she was asked to provide commentary about the university's homecoming parade by the local cable TV company's CATV-Channel 2, which evolved into a daily news program that was also carried by KFUN, which later hired her as a disc jockey.[5]
