| Catching Up With ‘Allison Steele’ From our “Where are the now?” file: Renee DuBay. Omahans will remember DuBay (pictured) better known as Allison Steele, who was on the air here under that name for 14 years before joining the Mix (WTMX-FM) in Chicago in 2006. DuBay, her real name, perhaps had her most popular run as midday and afternoon host on Z-92 (KEZO-FM), where she also served as music director. DuBay was also Allison Steele on the now-defunct City (KCTY-FM), Star 104.5 FM and Q-98 (KQKQ 98.5 FM). When she decided to try Chicago, DuBay sold “Everything she owned,” including her car, and decided to go by her given name. “Some family members and friends thought I was nuts for leaving a comfortable existence at Q-98.5 for part-time work in Chicago,” DuBay recalled. “I always had the dream ever since I was a 16-year-old of working in a Top 10 radio market and I was going to market No. 3. I was single, no kids, if I was going to do it, it was time.” DuBay started working one day a weekend, then two days, and later filled in for full-timers. --- Full Article: Omaha City Weekly Media Watch: Catching Up With ‘Allison Steele’ News Source: Omaha City Weekly Media Watch |
