Gerry House (born 1948) is an American radio personality who was heard on WSIX-FM in Nashville, Tennessee on the morning show Gerry House and the House Foundation from 1983 to 2010. House has won the CMA ACM Billboard and Marconi awards for Personality of the Year numerous times. House is also a songwriter, who has written songs for George Strait ("The Big One"), Reba McEntire ("Little Rock"), LeAnn Rimes ("On the Side of Angels") and Pam Tillis ("The River and the Highway"). He has also had his songs recorded by Brad Paisley, Randy Travis, Trace Adkins, Mark Collie, Clint Black, Neal McCoy, The Oak Ridge Boys, and Big & Rich, among others. Family Gerry House was born in Independence, Kentucky, a suburb of Cincinnati, Ohio, on March 28, 1948, to Lucille and Homer House. House married Allyson Faulkner in 1970 and has a daughter, Autumn House Tallant. Career Before moving to Nashville, House worked in Richmond, Kentucky, Louisville, Kentucky, Ithaca, New York and Jacksonville, Florida. He first joined WSIX-AM in 1975. House had also begun to do stand-up comedy and was writing songs. In the early 1980s, WSIX-FM, a country music-formatted FM outlet, appointed House to host a new morning show. Al Voecks, who had previously been a local TV news anchor, had presented a talk show on the AM station, and he soon became House's newsman. Duncan Stewart joined the cast as House's sports reporter, and Paul Randal began as a traffic reporter and eventually became House's co-presenter. Around this time, the program began being known as The House Foundation. The House Foundation was temporarily dissolved in 1985 when House left for a WSIX competitor, WSM-AM. After a short time at WSM as the final host of historic morning program The Waking Crew, the last morning radio program in America with a live band, House was hired by KLAC in Los Angeles. House's time on the West Coast was also relatively brief; he soon left KLAC and came back to WSIX-FM and resumed Gerry House and the House Foundation, with Voecks, Stewart and Randall, all in their original roles. Devon O'Day also joined the show as producer and for a country music news segment called "Twang Talk". House earned a record deal with MCA Records and released two country–comedy albums, The Cheater's Telethon in 1990 and Bull in 1992. House also hosted several nationally syndicated radio shows, including Countryline
