- 社会／文化
Today we celebrate a blast from my past who is very much thriving and living a great life in Indiana. Back in my early days in small-town radio, April wrote a weekly column for the local paper on arts & entertainment. Well-loved and admired, she helped pioneer the CO Roaring Fork Valley's comedy scene, kicking it off on a high note on one of the finest stages in Aspen, and eventually creating The April Clark Show. Join April and I for a little walk through the past, what she's up to now, having taken on perhaps the most rewarding project of her lifetime as a wife and mom in the chicken capital of Indiana. Hear about the untalked-about souvenir that many formerly pregnant women carry and April's part in the beginnings of that little blue pill.
April Allford is a Purdue University and Poynter Institute for Media Studies alumna who seeks out creative outlets in her life. The Society of Professional Journalists, Colorado Press Association, Colorado Mountain News Media and Purdue Exponent have recognized April for her notable writing and graphic design achievements. In Aspen, she was introduced to stand-up comedy as part of a narrative reporting assignment. She continued writing her weekly newspaper column and taking the stage on the Western Slope of Colorado before moving back to the midwest and starting a family in her 40s. She spent time on different comedy stages in Denver, where she won a scholarship to attend Louie Anderson’s comedy camp, and once opened for Leon Redbone when he played in Carbondale, Colorado.
