Newsradio 790 AM WNIS

Denis Reidy

Production Director, WNIS/WTAR

New York Native Denis Reidy, using his strong voice and creativity, produces the commercials that you hear on 790 AM WNIS and its sister station 850 AM WTAR.

A fluke request for Time in a Bottle got Denis into the world of radio broadcasting and diverted him from following in the family tradition of being a New York City police officer. He’s been in radio for the past 27 years and was formerly heard on WCMS for much of that time.

A devoted employee and determined actor, Denis has been featured in a number of television programs including New Detectives, FBI Files, and Prosecutors. He is also featured in an independent film called Stray to be released in the spring of 2002 (hopefully). His other major claim to fame is that he was the first contestant on the $10,000 pyramid.

Denis is married to his wonderful wife named Donna, and now lives in Suffolk. He has two children in Florida, Sharese and Elias.

Never afraid to share a compliment, or positive encouragement, Denis is a sincerely down-to-earth person to talk with and a funnyman at the office. Denis spends much of his time making other people smile with his comedic commentary.
