About Mark Vogelzang

Mark Vogelzang is the interim General Manager at WBFO. He is leading the staff during FY ’10 in completing its strategic planning process, as well as a review of its programming, community outreach, and partnership opportunities.

Mark is the former president of Vermont Public Radio and a longtime member of the National Public Radio (NPR) Board of Directors. He was elected to the NPR board for two terms from 2001-2008 and comes to Buffalo from Washington, D.C., where, after leaving Vermont Public Radio, he has been working on interim assignment at NPR, leading its development and foundation team.

In 1993, when Vogelzang took over as president, Vermont Public Radio was broadcasting a single service on three transmitters. Today, through growth by strategic acquisitions, the network consists of nine full-power FM stations throughout Vermont, with two discrete program services -- an award-winning news service and a classical music service.

Mark and his wife Rhonda have 5 adult children and 4 grandchildren. He enjoys photography, sports and music as special interests.
