KUVO (89.3 MHz) is a non-profit FM radio station broadcasting mainly jazz music in a public radio format. Licensed to Denver, Colorado, KUVO is owned by the Rocky Mountain Public Media Inc. KUVO's mission is to "provide distinctive music, news and informational programming reflecting the values and cultural diversity of their listener community." In the 1980s Hugo Morales, a radio station executive sought to establish a Hispanic radio station in the Denver area as part of his organization Radio Bilingüe. Florence Hernández-Ramos (born 1950), a graduate of Lamar High School and the University of Colorado at Boulder, helped establish the station. Hernández-Ramos had attended the Colorado School of Law to follow her passion for civil rights. She met Morales while working as a paralegal in the Colorado attorney general's office in 1982. Given her law background in civil rights and interest in increasing Hispanic representation, Hernández-Ramos was drawn into Morales’ cause. She conducted research on how such a station could be put on the air and secured the grants necessary to fund it. She also arranged the purchase of the broadcasting and recording equipment, getting the board of directors, and establishing an orientation and training program. More information...
