Radio New Zealand - Te Reo Irirangi o Aotearoa

Producer and presenter of Spectrum

Producer and presenter of the Auckland Issues segment on Afternoons with Jim Mora

David Steemson has worked for Radio New Zealand since before the coming of mankind. Working for Spectrum for the last ten years, though, has helped make him young again.

“Spectrum is about New Zealand tales, and the people I meet are so passionate as they tell their stories. I love it.” And that’s despite nearly every Kiwi’s first response on being told by David he wants an interview: “Oh, there’s nothing special about me.” (exasperated sigh).

David Steemson is based in Auckland. For Spectrum, he covers the North Island north of Lake Taupo.
