Interrante began her radio career in Dallas as a newscaster on KNUS and KVIL. Based on that success, she was hired by RKO to work at the legendary KFRC/San Francisco, where she was eventually promoted to News Director.

In the late ’70s, when RKO launched the RKO Radio Networks, Interrante was named as the network’s inaugural VP of Programming. During the ’80s Interrante teamed up with Rob Sisco to form IS INC, which produced weekly artist profile series MusicStar and The Hot Ones, hosted by John Leader and Dave Roberts. IS INC also created and produced John Leader’s Countdown America and Countdown USA hosted by Leader and Dave Sholin. Interrante was also the host of Live from The Record Plant for RKO. Until 2009, she was an executive with ABC Radio based in Dallas.
