Sue Thomas has been part of the media in St. Louis since the early 1990’s, when she started doing traffic and news reports on different radio stations like KEZK, 550 AM, and KIX 106.5. Eventually, Sue became the first in-studio traffic reporter on a local TV station in the St. Louis market on KMOV, Channel 4 in the morning, while co-hosting “Billy and Sue and the Afternoon Revolution” on KIX. Now, her show, “History of the Lou with Sue” airs on KMOX and 97.1 FM, and highlights the events, people, places, and things that make up the history of St. Louis.
