Michigan Memories (See you again in the fall)

WCMU TV
takes you across historic Michigan for a look at efforts to preserve our heritage throughout time.

Different Towns, Different People,
One Thing in Common:

They are all connected to one another--and their stories connect us to them.

Television Producer, Sarah R. Adams is the producer and host of Michigan Memories and co-host of Inside Central.

Sarah started working in radio at age 15, as co-host and writer for a children's radio program. By age 16, she was one of the station’s on-air personalities. As a student at CMU, she worked as a host, reporter, news anchor, and producer, for many programs on student-run TV station MHTV, and was part of the CNN student bureau. She originally joined WCMU-TV as a camera operator and producer of the Inside Central segment, "President's Corner" and was hired full-time in 2002.

Sarah has her Bachelor of Applied Arts in Broadcast and Cinematic Arts from Central Michigan University and is working on a Master of Arts degree in Broadcast Management in her "spare" time.

Sarah’s job takes her on the road a lot, which is fine with her! ”I love being on the road for the Michigan programming that we do,” says Sarah. “Dave Martin (photographer/ editor) and I not only get to visit beautiful places, enjoy local hospitality, experience one adventure after another, and have a great time traveling all over the state, but we get to meet some of the most amazing, kind, dedicated people I've ever known--that's the best part of what we do.”

Sarah was born and raised in metro-Detroit, but spent half of her life in the U.P. (her father was a pastor so the family moved around a lot). She enjoys spending time with her family and hanging out with friends all over the country. Sarah also loves singing (she is a vocalist with a musical group at her church), watching old movies, painting with watercolors, sketching, reading historical fiction and biographies, and her cat, Ellie.

Dave Martin has logged many miles traveling throughout Michigan as the videographer and editor of Michigan Memories. One of Dave’s most vivid “Michigan memories” is a three-day trip to Kalamazoo in which he and Sarah Adams wound up with three flat tires, a dead cell phone and a broken tripod. Then, to top it off, he fell in the snow and lost his pillow (not necessarily in that order)!

Dave has a B.A.A. in Broadcast and Cinematic Arts with an emphasis on film theory and a minor in Art from Central Michigan University. While working on his undergraduate degree, Dave spent five years as a member of the WCMU student production crew.
When he’s not on the road, you can find Dave on the volleyball court. He is the coach of the CMU Men’s Volleyball team and the Sacred Heart Academy Varsity Volleyball team.
