Emily Harris grew up in Portland and attended Lincoln High. She spent some time at KBOO and, in 2002, landed a post with NPR, reporting from Central Europe and then Iraq, a beat that earned her a 2005 WW cover story.
Now she’s host of the OPB broadcast Think Out Loud, which - to my mind - is a piece of what makes Portland awesome. According to Emily, other NPR affiliates around the country are closely following the reception that this program format finds among radio listeners in the OPB market.

Wow. She got started at KBOO?
Cause, um, she doesn’t suck…
I actually really really like her - she brings people into the conversation, but is firm on creating an atmosphere and doesn’t let people ramble.
She has a keen ear for good radio production.
I actually think that show stinks.
