KJR sports radio host and voice of the WNBA Seattle Storm Dick Fain is featured in this month’s #HighlineAlum social media campaign. Fain is a 1992 graduate of Mount Rainier High School.
 
Fain began his career in broadcasting at KJR in 1997 and worked his way up to show host and sports director. He is the host of the Live @5:30 show and co-host of the Mitch in the Morning show. Fain is entering his ninth year as the voice of the WNBA Seattle Storm and is in his third year as a fill-in sports anchor on KING-5 TV. 
 
“This is a special place that we should all be proud of. The diversity of the district is second to none. It should be celebrated,” said Fain. “There are so many kids that I went to school with that all went their separate ways in college and in their 20s. Look where they came back to 15 years later to raise their kids. There is a reason for that and Highline should take great pride in that fact.”
