More about Sybil Wilkes:
The face behind the "voice of reason" on the Tom Joyner Morning Show belongs to Sybil Wilkes. Her knowledge and insight brings a logical point of view to the show, but don't be fooled. She can get caught up in the humor as much as the rest of the crew.

This native Chicagoan began her radio career in 1985 at  WKQX-FM, Chicago. She eventually went on to news management and reporting jobs at WINK-AM/FM, Fort Myers, Florida; WRCC-FM, Cape Coral, Florida; and WCKZ-FM, Charlotte, North Carolina.

In 1989, Wilkes joined WGCI-AM/FM, Chicago, as a talk show host.  In 1990 she became a reporter for Chicago's Shadow Traffic Network. While with Shadow, Wilkes delivered morning and afternoon drive traffic updates and worked as one of Tom Joyner's WGCI-FM sidekicks.
