The Conclave is pleased to announce Emmy Award-winning television writer, producer, director, radio personality and Major League Baseball broadcaster Ken Levine as a keynote presenter at Conclave 45: The Last Conclave, Thursday, September 17 at 8:30 AM in Bloomington, Minnesota.

Few careers demonstrate the possibilities of broadcasting quite like Levine’s. Beginning behind a microphone in Top 40 radio – including time on the air as the wonderfully named “Beaver Cleaver” – Levine went on to become one of television comedy’s most accomplished writers. His credits include some of the most celebrated series in television history, including M*A*S*H, Cheers, Frasier, The Simpsons, Wings, Everybody Loves Raymond and Becker. Along the way, his television work earned an Emmy Award, Writers Guild Awards and other industry honors.

And somehow, that’s only half the story. A lifelong baseball fan, Levine also turned his
broadcasting talents toward the ballpark, becoming a Major League Baseball play-by-play announcer and calling games for the Baltimore Orioles, Seattle Mariners and San Diego Padres. He later returned to Los Angeles radio as a host of Dodger Talk on KABC. From a Top 40 control room to Hollywood writers’ rooms to Major League broadcast booths, Levine has spent his career proving that you never know where a life in radio might take you.

At The Last Conclave, Levine will bring those worlds together, sharing stories, lessons and insights from an extraordinary career in radio, television, comedy and sports broadcasting. His keynote presentation begins at 8:30 AM Thursday, September 17, providing a fitting centerpiece for the final day of Conclave 45.

Conclave 45: The Last Conclave takes place September 15-17, 2026, in Bloomington, Minnesota at the Crowne Plaza Aire MSP Airport – Mall of America. Registration and additional information are available at TheLastConclave.com.
