Michael Bourne has been a presence on WBGO since the end of 1984. He's hosted the popular Singers Unlimited (Sunday 10 a.m.-2 p.m.) since 1985 and Afternoon Jazz (Monday-Friday 2 p.m.-6:30 p.m., including the 3 p.m. Blues Hour) since the mid-90's. He's been honored with the Willis Conover-Marian McPartland Award for Excellence in Jazz Broadcasting from the Jazz Journalists Association. Michael is also a senior contributor to Down Beat, with the magazine since 1969. Doctor Bourne earned a PhD in Theatre from Indiana University -- which comes in handy when he's a theatre critic for the WBGO Journal.
