Rickman Reanimated
Just where in the hell has Brian Rickman gone? About a year ago, Rickman left his position as OM for Townsquare Media’s Tyler, TX market to be closer to family in Illinois. Since then, he’s remained active in the radio world; operating his consulting firm and doing occasional fill-ins on talk stations in Illinois, Missouri and Indiana.
Beyond that, however, Rickman has been focusing on his burgeoning writing career as a creepy SciFi/Fantasy/Horror author. His “Ascension” series (four books presently) has topped the Amazon charts for three straight years during the Halloween season and this year is no exception, with an added bonus –Rickman can now add “sold the film rights of his series” to his resume! “Some kids in Hollywood decided to enter into a production deal to turn the books into film,” he says. “We don’t know what that might be yet, but it’s still kinda cool and I can buy some extra Christmas presents for the kids with this check.”
In the meantime, Rickman is anxious to get back to a regular radio gig. His resume includes 10 years as VP of Programming for URBan Radio Broadcasting, and as an OM in markets from Muscle Shoals, AL to Middlesex, NJ. He also programmed WKZQ and WYAV/Myrtle Beach, SC, WZAT/Savannah, GA, WXQR/Greenville-New Bern-Jacksonville, NC and several more. Digital stuff? He’s done that too. Now that you have fallen madly in like, perhaps you would like to speak with him? Oh, and he’s cool with relocation. Resume and airchecks are at your disposal via brian.c.rickman@gmail.com.
