Children's Music, Folk and World
Al Arkus started at WNYC by producing, directing, and reading newscasts. He also directed and announced for Edward Tatnall Canby, David Randolph, and Oscar Brand. Children’s programming became one of his favorite genres: he wrote, produced and narrated The Music Maestro, a weekly educational music program, and appeared regularly on The Children’s Story Fair. He also wrote, directed, and produced the Here's Heidy children's program with storyteller Heidy Mayer. After WNYC, Al produced a number of commercial children's records and had a successful career at Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty, where he was the Broadcast Operations Director for the New York office until 1994.
