WMNR’s Mike Shakinovsky
	Camille Saint Saëns once said, "I live in music like a fish lives in water"… And so it is with Mike Shakinovsky. He was born into a musical family going back generations. His mother taught the piano as well as the dance (ballet). Mike’s roots were nourished with music and the arts. From Russian extraction, Mike has lived in a number of countries around the world. and he made the USA his home in 1978. He lives with his wife Sheryl who is a portrait artist. Their home is filled with music and art. In his "spare time" Mike is an engineer. It goes without saying that his passion is for the piano and he presents "The Great Pianists of the 20th Century" at 8 p.m. every Monday evening. "The greatest pleasure for me is to share the music. There is nothing more gratifying than to broadcast it to our listeners here on Fine Arts Radio". Mike has been with WMNR since 1984.
