Dwight Davis

Dwight Davis has been working in classical music radio since 1973. A graduate of Norview High School and Elon College, he served in the Army, then taught science, until an opening appeared at WGH-FM. With no radio experience, he was, by his own admission, not a particularly good announcer. But his love and knowledge of music held him in good stead. He came to WHRO-FM in 1983, and is now Music Director.

Though by nature not a morning person, Dwight has been a morning host for most of his radio career. In addition to his "Morning Classics" (5 to 10 a.m.), he hosts the weekly Sunday morning program "Your Musical Brunch" featuring a musical montage tailored to fit your Sunday morning routine, including "Bird Notes" and highlighting the weeks upcoming arts events! You'll also find Dwight hosting the Sunday afternoon "From the Parlor" program.

Dwight and his wife Holly have twin daughters, Whitney, attending UVA, and Emily, attending Virginia Tech. In his spare time Dwight likes to go birdwatching, collect and make smoking pipes, and maintain his 1974 VW beetle.
