Bridgeport Radio: We-Be's Storm N. Norman To Retire

Storm N Norman
After 40 years in the radio business, beloved WEBE 108(107.9 FM) personality Storm N. Norman is retiring his microphone. One of WEBE's original hosts when the station launched in 1984, Norman will host the WEBE Wake-Up Morning Show for the last time Today, according to ctpost.com.

From making international headlines in 1988 by offering $1 million for proof that Elvis Presley was still alive to anchoring coverage of the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks 13 years later, Norman has been an on-air fixture in the community.

He has earned four Billboard "Air Personality of the Year" nominations and interviewed stars such as Paul McCartney and Jerry Seinfeld. He met his wife, longtime personality Anne Rondepierre, at the station.

Robby Bridges, a former WEBE employee who has spent time at sister stations in New York, will become the new morning host Aug. 5.
