Primarily known for classic and modern rock music genres, Griffin began her disc jockey career in 1975 alongside Howard Stern at WRNW in Briarcliff Manor, New York.

She was originally going to be a VJ on MTV when it launched on August 1, 1981. However, she decided against it at the last minute; Martha Quinn took her place.

Prior to the Sirius/XM merger in 2008, Griffin appeared on the Sirius channels Sirius Disorder and Folk Town. She also appeared on University of Massachusetts Boston station WUMB-FM in 2010–11.[5]

She was featured in a 2015 documentary about Radio DJs called I Am What I Play, directed by Roger King.[6]
