“40 years ago, on July 4, we moved our family from Missouri to Minnesota — after Bill Kling convinced me to manage the 3-year-old Minnesota News Network. It was a grand MPR experiment to serve commercial radio stations in the state. It also was the best decision we've ever made for our two young daughters and for my wife and me. The best part, many old friends remain, including at MPR and MNN! Thanks Cathy!”

~ Jeff Smith, Minnetonka
