MEET KRIS LAKE (Man Behind the Mic)
Kris Lake is the man behind the mic on the Lake City Morning Show on 107.3 WRSW. In addition to his morning show hosting duties, Kris is the Director of Operations for Kensington Digital Media (the parent company that owns WRSW). In radio since 1996, Kris has done it all– sports, Metro Traffic, oldies, Top 40, Adult Contemporary, Country, News Talk, and of course his current wheelhouse, Classic Hits.
Kris hails from Chicagoland and has worked in several Illinois cities– Sandwich, DeKalb, Ottawa, and Chicago itself. He’s also been on air in Grand Rapids, Michigan and Montrose, Colorado before making his way to the Hoosier state. In addition to his numerous Federated Media awards, Kris Lake won Air Talent of the Year in 2012.
He’s interviewed a lot of well-known celebrities and dignitaries…among them Tom Hanks, George W. Bush, Ringo Starr, Ben E. King, Barack Obama, Chevy Chase, Jimmy Fallon, Regis Philbin, and Elizabeth Smart just two days after she was found alive after being held captive for 9 months.
He’s known for his great morning show topics, always having the latest food news, and his dedication to great causes like the KC Riley Kids Fund. He puts in long hours to make sure Riley Radio Days is successful, and has been instrumental in the increase in funds raised in each year’s radiothon. Kris is happy to have made Warsaw, Indiana his home. He lives here with his wife Danielle and their ‘furry kids’ (dog Lilo & cats Hunter & Ember).
