Doug Anders

Midnight Passages Host

Doug Anders is the host of KLCC's newest jazz program Midnight Passages.

Doug has listened to KLCC since moving to Eugene in the early 1990s. In 2004 he began substitute hosting for KLCC’s Jazz and many other music programs. Midnight Passages his third program as a regular host on KLCC and the fourth he has hosted on public radio. His first show while he was in high school, was on community radio station KAOS-FM in Olympia, WA. 
 
Doug is a poet, writer, career coach/consultant, owner of PurposeWorks - Your Career Solution in Eugene, and an individual whose friends and loved ones often find themselves patiently enduring his “excessive geeking” over Jazz... and music in general.
