Connor Cyrus, co-host and senior producer, Vermont Edition

Connor Cyrus has resigned from Vermont Public.

Cyrus joined the station in 2021 as co-host and senior producer of the weekday public affairs radio program Vermont Edition. Additionally, he has hosted political debates, Vermont This Week, events and produced video features during his time at Vermont Public.

"During our time as co-hosts Connor brought such joy and creativity to Vermont Edition," said Host Mikaela Lefrak during Tuesday's live program. "He pitched and hosted some of our most memorable episodes, like a show about adoption and trans-racial families, or an interview with a Vermont woman who traveled to D.C. to watch Kentanji Brown Jackson’s historic Supreme Court confirmation. Connor is a talented journalist with a big heart. I and the Vermont Edition team wish him the very best."

Lefrak will become Vermont Edition’s full-time host, and will continue to serve as senior producer.

“We appreciate Connor’s contributions to Vermont Edition and other programs over the last two years, and I know our audience has benefitted from them too,” said Scott Finn, president and CEO of Vermont Public. “We wish him all the best in his career.”

Michelle leads the team that oversees station branding, marketing, events, communications, and audience services. She joined VPR in 2002.
