Vikki Locke

Morning Show Host

Vikki Locke has been waking up Atlanta radio listeners for over 20 years. The most asked question she gets is “What time do you have to get up?” And the answer is “ 3AM…ouch!”  Vikki graduated from Ohio State University with a degree in Broadcast Journalism. She has interviewed presidents and other world leaders, musicians, movie and television stars and sports celebrities. She is a member of the Georgia Radio Hall of Fame and has been nominated for a Marconi, the highest achievement in broadcasting.  She is married to her best friend Mike Hughes and when they have the time they love to travel.  Vikki believes strongly in connecting with the community and giving back. She has helped  Children’s Health Care of Atlanta raise millions and is involved in a host of other charitable organizations.  Family members have been lost to Cystic Fibrosis, kidney disease and cancer.

 

Thanks to Drop Dead Gorgeous for honoring Vikki Locke with a Lifetime Achievement Award for her charitable work in the community. DDG’s main objective is to end child sex trafficking and to provide financial support to victims.
