Arnie Sherman is a Montana entrepreneur and host of Montana Public Radio’s podcast CAN DO: Essential Business Lessons. He is also a lifelong Shakespeare aficionado. He has taken up the late in life gauntlet from Missoula Singer/Songwriter Elias Harms, to interpret the Sonnets of Shakespeare in a singularly American voice and style. He was first exposed to Shakespeare as a NYC public school student in many visits to The American Shakespeare Theatre, in Stratford, Connecticut.

Verne Windham got his start at Spokane Public Radio 20 years ago. “I came in to complain and they hired me.” He’s now the Program Director, as well as the host of Morning Classical and Concert of the Week. When choosing music for Morning Classical, Verne likes to keep the agenda as broadly defined as possible. For Concert of the Week, he focuses on the best of recent local performances, mostly classical in nature. For many years, Verne was also the conductor of the Spokane Youth Orchestra. He enjoys gardening, his vintage car and playing French horn.
