Indiana Broadcast History Archive

After beginning her radio career at WIFE-AM in Indianapolis, Ann Craig-Cinnamon quickly moved to WNAP-FM, becoming the first woman to be a major part of a radio morning show in Indianapolis when she joined the morning team in the late ‘70s. In the 1980s, she served as the news director for Network Indiana, the statewide news-gathering and reporting radio network. In a broadcasting career that spanned nearly 30 years on radio and TV in Indianapolis, Craig-Cinnamon would go on to make a name for herself as the host of successful radio morning shows on WZPL-FM, WENS-FM, WYJZ-FM and WHHH-FM. She was instrumental in putting WPDS-TV (now WXIN-TV) on the air in 1983 as one of its original reporters and serving as the station’s public affairs director.

Ann Craig-Cinnamon was inducted into the Indiana Broadcast Pioneers Hall of Fame in 2019.
