Bob Reitman has one of the most recognizable voices at StoryPoint Mequon in Wisconsin, and his artistry and creative work continue to grow.
For approximately 50 years, Bob co-hosted WKTI’s “Reitman and Mueller” morning show, a program that helped make him one of Milwaukee radio’s most recognizable voices.
And he’s not letting time slow him down. In October 2026, Reitman released his second spoken-word poetry album, “12th House,” before a large crowd at Milwaukee’s Pabst Theater. Rob’s “11th House” was released 54 years ago.
Held October 12, the interactive album launch party took attendees through the twelve houses of the astrological wheel through local performers who highlighted the theme of one astrological house. It also featured performers like Milwaukee Youth Poet Laureate Jodie Jasim, Good Land Youth Dancers, Interchange Theater improv, 40+ Double Dutch Club, poet Bryon Cherry, a performance by musician Trapper Schoepp with Barry Ollman, poetry readings and a live conversation with Bob Reitman and more.
Among those honoring Reitman’s legacy was Traci Montgomery, who grew up listening to him on the radio and later became his friend through her work at StoryPoint in Mequon, where he now lives.
“He was a part of my family growing up,” Montgomery said. “You need people like that. He’s a teacher in his own right, even though he’s not a teacher. He doesn’t even realize it, how he pours into other people’s lives.”
Proceeds from the event and album sales will go toward WUWM to support the creation of “Reitman Radio Camp,” a week-long camp geared toward Milwaukee-area high school students interested in audio production.
