Nationally-syndicated radio personality Delilah will be inducted into the National Association of Broadcasters Broadcasting Hall of Fame at the 2017 NAB Show in Las Vegas. Delilah was inducted into the National Radio Hall of Fame back on November 17. Her show is heard by more than eight million weekly listeners on over 160 stations across the country. She is the most-listened-to woman on radio in the United States.
NAB Executive Vice President of Radio John David said, “With her distinctive blend of storytelling, listening, and encouragement, Delilah has rightfully earned the distinction of being one of the most significant voices in American radio. Delilah’s career represents the true impact that radio can have on its listeners.”
Delilah first became interested in radio as a middle school student in Reedsport, Oregon, where she provided school news and sports reports for the local station KDUN-AM. She’s also the author of three books, including Arms Full of Love, which was released in 2012. Published by Harlequin Books, it features a collection of heartfelt listener stories and Delilah’s own tales that demonstrate the importance of family. In 2004, Delilah established the non-profit Point Hope, which addresses the needs of special needs children in the foster care system nationwide, in addition to refugee children in Ghana. Delilah is the mother of 13 children, 10 of whom were adopted.
