Len Erickson

Len has been a broadcaster for more than 25 years and started his career in the U.S. Army. As a broadcast journalist, he hosted a daily morning show and shot news videos in the Republic of Korea for the American Forces Korea Network. For his morning show, he won a worldwide AFRTS (Armed Forces Radio and Television Service) third-place Keith L. Ware award (the military broadcaster's excellence award) for his efforts in the “Best Regularly Scheduled Program” category.

After leaving the military, various radio and TV jobs cropped up, including an 11-year stint as a photojournalist and editor at NewsChannel 8 WFLA, the NBC-TV affiliate in Tampa. He received his BA in Mass Communications in 1998 from the University of South Florida.

Len has been with Lakeland’s Hall Communications Radio Group since November 2008, serving in various fill-in spots as needed. From early 2009 until 2012 he hosted 97 Country WPCV's “Sunday Night Classics Show.” Today (2014), he’s the guy who wakes everybody up on WLKF’s “Mayhem in the A.M.” morning show.
