The Walla Walla Union-Bulletin Hails Burl's Return

 
Right before I graduated from college, Burl Barer moved back to Walla Walla with his wife and daughter.  He had been a DJ in Seattle for many years and operated a production company in Bellevue. 
Burl worked at B. Barer And Sons, and did consulting work at KUJ, a top 40 station at the time.  He would later set up a cable advertising business in Walla Walla and the Tri Cities.  Eventually, he would do consulting work at KEXI, at the time, an FM station in nearby Milton-Freewater. 
Just after he moved, the Walla Walla Union-Bulletin did a feature story in it's Friday TV supplement.
Burl currently resides in the Los Angeles area.  He also has a son.

KEXI? Was that Denny Widmer's station in MF with the giant skully tapes?
I was indeed a living legend. I have two kids (or more) kids -- Anea Barer, Jordan Barer, and another daughter named Kathy Brewer in the Seattle area the result of a brief but rewarding liaison in 1968 while working at KYAC, and according to Marty Moore I have a son named Teddy who thinks his mother is his sister. Life is such a soap opera.
