When inRegister launched in 1989, some of these familiar faces were immersed in wildly different pursuits
Sylvia Weatherspoon
News anchor on WBRZ-TV; Anchor/Producer, 2 Make A Difference with Sylvia Weatherspoon
“In 1989 I was working two jobs with Guaranty Broadcasting. I worked as a copywriter, creating copy for radio advertisements and marketing at what was then WGGZ-FM/Z-98. I also hosted a weekly public affairs program. I also bounced across the street daily to the television station for my duties there, anchored the local morning news updates and was eventually promoted to a full-time reporting and fill-in anchor job.”
David Humphreys
Artist/Photographer
“In 1989 I was nine years into my career as a professional photographer. My studio was the first house on the north side of Spanish Town Road. It was a shotgun fourplex. I had tremendous Spanish Town Mardi Gras parties. I actually photographed Orene Muse for the new inRegister.”
