MTV Turns 40: Grammy Museum Exhibit | VJ Alan Hunter | MPB

Alan Hunter was one of the original video jockeys (VK) for the iconic MTV television music brand. Hunter, a 1979 graduate of Millsaps, talked with Mississippi Public Broadcasting about his time (1981-87) at MTV.
MTV Turns 40, the first major exhibition to be curated by the GRAMMY Museum Mississippi team, explores the history of the iconic music brand-from the role of native Mississippian, Bob Pittman, in the concept and execution of an idea that revolutionized the music industry and, to why, nearly four decades later, people across the world still scream, “I want my MTV.”
