Beginning in 1997, Lemley hosted and produced a variety of news and arts programs for Atlanta’s NPR affiliate, 90.1 WABE.

Over the past two decades, Lemley has garnered numerous accolades and awards. He has been named “Best Drive-Time DJ” by the staff of the Atlanta Journal-Constitution for his work as host of the news magazine, All Things Considered. Atlanta Magazine chose Lemley and City Café as “Best of the Dial.” He is also a recipient of a GLAAD media award and has been honored by the Georgia Association of Broadcasters for his work on City Café.
Lemley graduated from Birmingham-Southern College in 1990 with a Bachelor of Arts degree in musical theatre. He also studied Latin at Emory University in Atlanta. Lemley lives in Atlanta with his husband, Mike Selk.
