Lee Abrams

XM's Senior Vice President and Chief Programming Officer, Lee Abrams, has been shaping the American radio industry for over three decades. Lee has brought unparalleled ratings and economic success to radio stations in over 200 markets in the U.S., including 97 of the top 100. In 1993, Newsweek magazine listed Abrams as one of America's "100 Cultural Elite" for his contributions to creating modern radio; and Radio Ink listed Abrams as one of the 75 most important radio figures of all time. Abrams joined XM in June 1998 to help create the next generation of radio: satellite radio. With more than 100 XM channels that he develops and programs, Abrams is once again meeting the challenge of reinvigorating the radio landscape.
