WBHM 90.3 FM Hires New All Things Considered Host/Reporter
Public Radio WBHM 90.3 FM has hired Esther Ciammachilli as the station’s new All Things Considered announcer and news producer.
Ciammachilli comes to WBHM from Reno Public Radio in northern Nevada, where she was a general assignment reporter and host of All Things Considered. Ciammachilli’s voice has been the tool of her trade for the last thirteen years. Before entering public radio, Esther was in commercial radio and was also a singer and actress in Las Vegas. She received her degree from the Reynolds School of Journalism at the University of Nevada, Reno in 2014. Before graduating, she earned the school’s Outstanding Broadcast Student Award.
“We’re happy to have someone with Esther’s energy and enthusiasm on our news team,” says Rachel Osier Lindley, News Director. “Her voice and reporting are a welcome addition to our expanding newsroom. With her help, we will continue our ongoing efforts to bring more in-depth stories to our listeners.”
Ciammachilli is especially interested in public health issues but enjoys covering everything from agriculture to sports. “I am very excited to be a part of the team at WBHM,” says Ciammachilli. “And I am looking forward to telling Birmingham’s stories.”
“Esther will bring a welcome new perspective to WBHM’s reporting on our diverse, complex, and changing world,” says WBHM General Manager Scott Hanley. “As we continue to expand our service in Birmingham and North Central Alabama, Esther will be an invaluable part of our team.”
Ciammachilli will begin hosting and reporting duties for WBHM each weekday during All Things Considered beginning in early November.
