Connie Szerszen finally wrote the book ...

From Tom Taylor:

Connie Szerszen – a.k.a. Chicago’s “Top Rock Girly Jock” – has written her autobiography, and it’s 352 pages of stories and pictures that re-create the intersection of the radio scene and rock & roll.

Connie dishes about Elvis, her date with Neil Diamond, and hanging out with stars from Elton John to Stevie Nicks.

Connie says she was “the first female rock jock on AM radio in Chicago" and later “the first female in America to broadcast live on HD Radio”, in 2005. She packs a lot into the autobiography (plus 200 pictures), and you can find out more about the Starbright Publishing book here.

I worked around Chicago for a few years, and always listened to Connie whenever I could.  She and Yvonne Daniels were always the role models I pointed female employees towards when they wanted guidance within their gender.
