Ottley served the people of the Virgin Islands as a Senator in the 9th, 10th, and 13th Legislatures, and as Lieutenant Governor with Governor Melvin H. Evans. Ottley was a true statesman and public servant. He hosted “The Addie Ottley Morning Show†on his radio station, WSTA 1340 AM for over 50 years, and “Face to Face†on WTJX – Channel 12 for over 35 years. His name, voice, and face were a staple during numerous cultural community activities.
