Report: Mimi Griswold To Retire From Galaxy in Syracuse


Cnyradio.com is reporting, Mimi Griswold has announced plans to retire from her duties as Vice President of Programming for Syracuse-based radio operator Galaxy Communications at the end of this year. She cited some recent events in her personal life. Griswold will continue to host Blue Moon Cafe, and she’ll serve as a programming consultant.

Griswold was hired in 1992 to program K-Rock, when it started as WKLL in the Utica-Rome market. When Galaxy expanded into the Syracuse market a year later, she saw the expansion of K-Rock to 100.9 WKRL, and she also oversaw programming for TK99 (WTKW). Griswold was promoted to her current position as VP of Programming in 1998.

Ed Levine, President and CEO of Galaxy, said Griswold “helped lead our growth from one radio station in the back of a diner to fourteen radio stations and a position as one of the nation’s leading independent broadcasters. I’m just thankful that she will continue to be on the air with Blue Moon Cafe as well as having access to her programming knowledge by being a consultant to Galaxy.”
