From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Soterios Johnson is the local host of NPR's Morning Edition on New York City's public radio station, WNYC. A New Jersey native, Johnson worked at WKCR while earning his undergraduate degree from Columbia University. He later received a master's degree from the Columbia University Graduate School of Journalism. His unusual first name comes from his Greek heritage.
[edit] Influence on music
His name is the inspiration for the moniker of New York City band Satirius Johnson. Jonathan Coulton, a folk-rock artist also based in New York, wrote a song called "Dance, Soterios Johnson, Dance" that presents a fictionalized version of Johnson as a club-goer.
