PITTSBURGH COMMUNITY BROADCASTING Triple A WYEP/PITTSBURGH has announced TODAY (9/24), that ABBY C. GOLDSTEIN, a veteran public radio executive with deep roots in Triple A programming, would join the station as General Manager, effective NOVEMBER 14th.
GOLDSTEIN, most recently VP/Programming at NEW HAMPSHIRE PUBLIC RADIO, succeeds interim GM and WYEP Board Director GREG JOSEPH.
"ABBY GOLDSTEIN is a major catch for PITTSBURGH and WYEP," said LINDA MCCLINTOCK, Chair of the WYEP board.
