Beaumont Chamber names 2025 ‘Man of the Year’

The Greater Beaumont Chamber of Commerce is proud to announce legendary broadcaster Al Caldwell as the 2025 Man of the Year. A beloved voice of Southeast Texas for over five decades, Caldwell has become a household name through his work on KLVI News Talk 560, where his wit, wisdom and unwavering dedication to the community have earned him the title of local icon.

Caldwell’s radio career has been defined by authenticity, passion and a deep love for Beaumont and its people. As host of the long running “Al Caldwell Morning Show,” he has informed, entertained and inspired generations of listeners. But it’s his work off the air—supporting nonprofits, mentoring youth and shining a spotlight on issues that matter—that truly exemplifies the heart of this year’s honoree.

“Al Caldwell is more than just a radio personality—he’s the voice of our community,” said Amy Lovoi, President of the Greater Beaumont Chamber of Commerce. “Through decades of broadcasting and public service, Al has uplifted this city with his humor, insight and compassion. We are honored to recognize him as our 2025 Man of the Year.”

Known for his unmatched work ethic and trademark charm, Caldwell’s contributions extend far beyond the microphone. Whether championing local causes or celebrating Beaumont’s triumphs, he has remained a constant source of positivity and pride for the region.

The award will be presented at the Chamber’s Annual Meeting on Oct. 7 at the Beaumont Civic Center.
