Production Director/Producer: This Is My Thing, Arts Eclectic, Get Involved, Sonic IDsMike is a features producer at KUT, where he’s been working since his days as an English major at the University of Texas. He produces and hosts This Is My Thing and Arts Eclectic, and also produces Get Involved and the Sonic ID project, among other things. When pressed to do so, he’ll write short paragraphs about himself in the third person, but usually prefers not to.
Several years ago, he featured a young dancer on his Arts Eclectic program, and she was so impressed by his interviewing skills that she up and married him. Now they enjoy traveling, following their creative whims, and spending time with their dog.
