Carolyn Burns: Class, Beauty, and Talent; KCBS Traffic Anchor Knows Her Stuff

Carolyn Burns is the consumate professional. Love her work

Burns does fill-in traffic on KCBS, an utter deligght. Not only is she a refreshing, bright, cool and calm voice, she also knows Bay Area roads and freeways and highways. Burns not only does traffic but sports updates too. She's been around the Bay Area for years. I used to schmooze with her when she did TV sports at KGO in the late 80's and 90's. About as good as it gets.

KCBS could do one better. It could make time for Carolyn on a permanent basis, somewhere, any time or place. I'm assuming Burns would be open to working but I could be wrong. She strikes me as a woman who has a schedule and itinerary and is only interested in radio on a temp basis.

When we schmoozed in the press box at the Oakland Coliseum and Candlestick, it was engrossing conversation. Carolyn Burns, like I said, is a wonderful broadcaster and more importantly, a cool person. We've not spoke for years. I'm putting out an APB for her to make contact.

Yes, I'm a critical guy. Which is why most of you all come here. It's rare I'm so complimentary. Burns is a talented lady and she is warranted my love and admiration.

Ba da bing.
