Mitch Carr

Mitch Carr has been part of the North Texas scene since driving a rental truck south from Indiana in 1975.   His radio career began as a teenager on KGBX-1260AM  in Springfield Missouri.   Four years in the U.S. Air Force put Mitch on AFRTS radio and television in Japan as well as doing voiceover work on USAF training films.
 
Mitch worked at WIFE-AM and WNDE/WFBQ in Indianapolis until moving to Dallas.
In 1985, Mitch joined the Ron Chapman Show on 103.7 KVIL.  Mitch moved with Ron to 98.7 KLUV in September 2000 and then made the transition to Newsradio 1080 KRLD in the summer of 2009.
 
Mitch is married to Illeen and they enjoy travel, trying out new restaurants, and spending time with their daughter’s family (including two “perfect” grandchildren).  Mitch’s travels have taken him to the Great Wall of China, the  Pyramids of Egypt as well as to Germany, France, Ireland, Morocco, Ecuador and many other exciting places.
 
Mitch has lived in Garland for most of the past 35 years but prides himself on the fact that he knows his way around Tioga, Gun Barrel City or Willow Park  as well as Dallas and Ft. Worth.
