CHARLEY LAKE GETS KOOL

Charley Lake Gets KOOL In Phoenix


The industry vet comes over from the PD job at Infinity Adult Hits sister WJMK (104.3 Jack-FM)/Chicago to program Oldies KOOL/Phoenix, and Infinity/Phoenix SVP/Market Manager Mark Steinmetz says, "Charley is a terrific programming manager who knows how to get the most from a talented team. He'll have everyone involved in the process of developing KOOL-FM's potent and compelling air sound and brand image."

Lake's resume also includes the OM post for Infinity's three-station Columbus, OH cluster and a term as National PD for Bartell Broadcasting's CHR/Pop stations in San Diego, Detroit, St. Louis, Milwaukee and Miami. He's also worked on the music-industry side, as a promotion exec for labels including Warner Bros., A&M and Epic.

Lake says, "I will miss the outstanding staff at WJMK and the many friends I've made at Infinity/Chicago, but the opportunity to work with the supertalented lineup at one of America's greatest radio stations is simply irresistible. I can't wait to get started."

At KOOL, Lake replaces Todd Wallace, who exited in May. Middayer Tom Peake has been handling programming duties in the interim.

Dittos from the Middle Eastern Men of the media who think The Peaker made a great save. We just question the Saturday Night Dance Party...Dick Barkley is missed here in Buckeye!
 
Charley gave me my first full-time job at Bartell's Contemp in San Diego. He was super cool to work for and with. Buena suerte to everyone at KOOL cause you're going to really like this guy. ;)
