Carlos Morales
Carlos is the former News Director of Marfa Public Radio.
He wore numerous hats at the station over the years — at one point he was simultaneously the station’s Morning Edition host, news director and a reporter.
As News Director, he led coverage that won scores of Regional Edward R. Murrow Awards and five National Edward R. Murrow Awards.
Carlos has covered a range of topics, including the impacts of the Trump Administration’s immigration policies, West Texas wildfires, the El Paso shooting, and much more.
Before joining MPR, he was a reporter at KWBU in Waco and worked with the Voces Oral History Project, a group that records the histories of Latina/o World War II veterans.
Originally from El Paso, Texas, Carlos strongly believes in the power of radio to bridge divides.
