 Michelle
Corr was raised in Alaska until the age
of seventeen when she ventured off to
college. Michelle exhibited a natural
aptitude for creative expression at an
early age. Fueled by this talent, she
traded Alaska¹s frozen tundra for the
beaches of Los Angeles, when she was
accepted at The American College for the
Applied Arts for a degree in Graphic
Design.
In 1990 Michelle transferred to
Arizona State University she entered the
prestigious Walter Cronkite School of
Broadcast Journalism and in 1994
graduated with a B.S. degree in
television and film production. Beginning
her professional career while still
attending school, she stage-managed
Sunday Night Football's "Stadium Show"
for TNT Sports, assisted crew and on-air
talent for PAC 10 Football and the Los
Angeles Lakers with Fox Sports West, and
was an ENG producer for ESPN. Michelle
continued with ESPN after graduating in
1994, and in late 1995 accepted the
position of Assistant Production Manager
on NBC’s "Unsolved Mysteries", where she
reported directly to Robert Stack and Bob
Ramiro. Looking to add marketing
experience to her technical knowledge of
production, Michelle took a job with the
Phoenix Coyotes in Sales and Marketing at
the end of the NHL season. In January
2000 everything came together for
Michelle. She accepted the position of
Executive Producer for North American
Broadcasting Company, a nationally
syndicated radio network. After breaking
all company sales records, in 2001 she
won the Top Producer Award. Michelle
began hosting her own weekly syndicated
talk show, The Naked Truth, for the
network in July of 2000.
After leaving the network in July of
2002 she founded her own company,
TALKSTARS™. As a media coach, she
produces both local and national radio
talk shows, and assists others in
developing their own radio programs. Her
latest venture began February 17, 2003
when she and co-host Greg Hall launched
their new program 180º Radio, a daily
magazine, on KXAM 1310 AM.
