Celebrating 50 Years Of NPR Memories On Thursday's Access Utah

Cait Salinas

As you know, NPR is celebrating 50 years. You’ve been hearing some memories from UPR staff members and now it’s your turn! Continue the conversation and share your memories by emailing upraccess@gmail.com.

Our guests will include former NPR Correspondent Corey Flintoff; former UPR staff members Richard Meng,  Nora Zambreno, and Bryan Earl; and current UPR staffers Shalayne Smith Needham and Friend Weller.

Tom Williams worked as a part-time UPR announcer for a few years and joined Utah Public Radio full-time in 1996. He is a proud graduate of Uintah High School in Vernal and Utah State University (B. A. in Liberal Arts and Master of Business Administration.) He grew up in a family that regularly discussed everything from opera to religion to politics. He is interested in just about everything and loves to engage people in conversation, so you could say he has found the perfect job as host “Access Utah.” He and his wife Becky, live in Logan.
