Veteran Houston TV Reporter Joins Houston Housing Authority

I was the one to break the fact that TV reporter Dennis Spellman was leaving 39 KIAH for the Houston Houston Authority. Here is the release from the authority:

Dennis Spellman has been named Vice President, Office of External Affairs, for the Houston Housing Authority. He will serve as the press Sscretary for HHA, and also will lead the communications and community relations departments and the non-profit entity, Houston Housing Resource, Inc.

Spellman is an award-winning broadcast journalist with more than 20 years of experience. For the past nine years he has served as general assignment reporter for Channel 39 News in Houston. Previously he anchored for KTRH news radio in Houston. He also spent several years managing radio news operations in several New England markets. Spellman has won numerous awards and was nominated for a 2008 Emmy.

The Houston Housing Authority provides affordable homes to more than 60,000 people throughout Houston. The agency and its affiliates own and operate 25 housing communities with more than 6,500 units for families, elderly and other residents.
