**Dick Uliano, above, posted** [**online**](https://www.linkedin.com/posts/dickuliano%5Fto-my-friends-and-colleagues-after-14-years-activity-7264309521051725824-YkTk/?ref=capitolcommunicator.com) **that he decided to leave WTOP after 14 years at the Glass Enclosed Nerve Center.**

His online post states: “It has been an honor to tell the every day stories of the people of DC, suburban Maryland and northern Virginia.

“Mentoring the new generation of journalists has been a highlight of my time at WTOP and I have been equally enriched by the perspectives and talents they have brought to the newsroom.”

“But, I am not retiring; my energy and ambition remain strong. And as I look ahead, I do so with deep gratitude to the colleagues and listeners who have made this chapter of my life so fulfilling.”

“He loved working in radio,” said Haning’s daughter Amber. “WTOP was his favorite job he ever had — he talked about it all the time.”

Haning’s career began well before his stint as a news anchor and reporter at WTOP, from the early 2000s through 2011, and showed his flexibility as a broadcaster.

Born in 1950 in Sydney, Iowa, Haning’s radio career began in 1970, shortly after graduating from Simi Valley High School, in California.
