"Radio is the theater of the mind"
- Steve Allen

Janet Robbins is one of KWMR's most treasured program hosts. Her elegant articulation and intimate feel for the layers of the English language make Janet's programs Appointment Radio for me.

- Kay Clements, Former Station Manager, KWMR Radio
 

You can hear me live on KWMR radio every week. On Mondays from 10 to 11 am, I co-host, with Ms. Lyons Filmer, Turning Pages: at Nature’s Pace, a program of mostly non-fiction readings that connect all of us with the world of nature. From time to time on Fridays from 10 to 11 am, I host Turning Pages: Reader's Delight, where I read novels and short stories.

Here are some of my earlier and current readings that are not bound by copyright laws. Note: depending on internet speed, the files may take a moment to play or download.
