| Allison Young
Weeknight Host, Monday-Tuesday,
10 pm - 12 am
Alison Young began her broadcast life at Houston
Public Radio serving as an assistant producer
for KUHF-FM for "The Front Row" and
hosting the station's "Sunday Afternoon Concert."
She enjoyed a successful career as a concert flutist,
performing as a guest with the Boston Symphony
and with the Atlanta Symphony. An intrepid traveler,
she has given recitals in the United States, Europe,
South America and Asia while managing to climb
a mountain or two in the process. She also served
as the principal flutist with the Houston Ballet
Orchestra.
While an illness cut her performing
career short, she made a vibrant artistic transition,
making the natural move to broadcasting. She says,
"the intellectual stimulation of speaking
with dancers, writers, artists, actors and musicians
is extremely rewarding." She received her
Bachelor of Music degree from the University of
Southern California and a master’s degree
from the Cleveland Institute of Music.
