A veteran Canadian music executive has been given the top job at CBC Radio.

Denise Donlon, former president of Sony Music Canada, was named executive director on Wednesday.

...

Donlon, 52, was born in Toronto and began working as a host and producer at MuchMusic in 1985.

By 1992, she had risen to become director of music programming, and was named vice-president and general manager in 1997.

She was president of Sony from 2000 to 2004 and named to the CHUM board of directors in 2005.

More recently, Donlon has been involved in high-profile projects such as Live 8, CBC's Tsunami Concert of Hope, the inaugural Green Living conference main stage and the President Clinton Foundation Birthday Event, which raised over $21 million.

Donlon is a member of the Order of Canada and was named broadcast executive of the year three times during Canadian Music Week.

Aloha,

Brad
