Richard Hits Top-Of-The-Hour At 1010WINS
• Susan Richard has been elevated to top-of-the-hour morning news anchor on Audacy’s 1010 WINS (All News 92.3)/New York. She is now the third person to anchor morning drive and the first woman to hold the position in the station’s 58-year history.
“Nothing says New York like 1010 WINS, and as both a life-long New Yorker and 25-year WINS veteran, I am thrilled and grateful to be the first woman chosen to fill this key on-air role,” said Richard. “The news watch never stops, and I look forward to serving our listeners in the city I know and love with the continuing commitment to broadcast excellence embodied by our entire staff.”
Ivan Lee, Brand Manager of 1010/92.3 WINS, remarked, “Not only is Susan a quintessential New Yorker and a brilliant anchor and journalist, but she will also forever serve as an inspiration and beacon of empowerment for all women who aspire to reach the highest on-air levels in the industry. We are beyond thrilled for her and this history-making moment.” Additional morning team announcements will be made in the coming weeks.
Richard also co-hosts 1010 WINS’ annual 4th of July coverage with Larry Mullins and provides news on Hot AC sister WNEW (NEW 102.7) each weekday morning. Prior to joining 1010 WINS in 1998, Richard programmed WFAS-FM/Westchester County, did weekends on WKJY (K-Joy 98.3)/Long Island, and was a freelance News Anchor at the former WQCD (now WFAN) and WKXW (New Jersey 101.5)/Trenton, NJ.
Since 2009 Richard has hosted the online video series All for Animals, which supports animal rescue, and has served as an emcee for gala fundraisers for Animal Care Centers of NYC and elsewhere.
