Lisa Mantineo

Title: Senior Producer
School and degree: Bachelor of Arts in Mass Communications from Bloomsburg University of Pennsylvania
Hometown: Saddle Brook, New Jersey
What you wanted to be when you grew up: When I grew up I wanted to be a performer; from a singer to an actor, to hosting my own radio show. (I still have the cassette tapes)
What’s your favorite in-studio activity? My favorite part of being in the radio studio is the unpredictability of live radio; those spontaneous moments of greatness achieved through a guest interview or listener call-in.
Favorite SiriusXM channel (outside of MSLR)? Hair Nation (channel 23)
Most interesting/famous/surprising person you’ve seen in the Sirius lobby? I was a huge Wonder Woman fan, growing up so one of my favorite “celebrity sightings” was Lynda Carter. However, the celebrity that I was most excited to see/meet was hands-down Olympic athlete Apolo Anton Ohno.
Favorite MSLR memory: One of my favorite Martha Radio memories was exploring San Francisco and the Napa Valley during our remote broadcast from the Napa Valley Mustard Festival in March 2009.
