Teddy Bart
Teddy Bart has a long and storied career in entertainment that spans over 40 years of on-air work. Teddy Bart’s career as a performer began in high school, when he hosted his own 15-minute radio program that was broadcasted on a local radio station. The next year, Teddy Bart made his first televised appearance when he appeared on Caught in the Act, a regional television program that featured local talent.
Building on his experience, Teddy Bart would spend the next 10 years making appearance on such shows as American Bandstand, the Noel Ball Show, and Dan McNeil’s Breakfast Club. After moving to Nashville in the early 1960s, Teddy Bart began his career in radio at 650 AM WSM, where he would eventually become the host of the station’s first call-in talk show in 1969. Teddy Bart also worked with WSM’s sister television station, where he hosted such programs as the Afternoon Show and Pop and Country.
Teddy Bart decided to make a dramatic career change in the early 1972 when he left his home at WSM to accept the nightly news anchor position at Channel 2, Nashville’s local ABC affiliate. While Teddy Bart would spend the next several years anchoring the news, and hosting a series of town hall specials for Channel 2, he realized his heart was still in radio.
Leaving Channel 2 after the station was sold, Teddy Bart’s passion for radio was reignited, and he launched Teddy Bart’s Round Table. The show would remain on the air for 21 years, and became one of the signature programs for news and community discussion in the Nashville area.
Teddy Bart has just released his second fictional novel, Shadow Seduction, and continues to host paranormal discussion talk show Beyond Reason with his long time broadcast partner Karlen Evins.
