No surprise here. Radio icon Delilah was inducted into the National Association of Broadcasters Broadcasting Hall of Fame during the Radio Luncheon at the 2017 NAB Show on April 25, in Las Vegas. Delilah’s induction marks the first time a woman has been chosen in the last 35 years. This is the third prestigious honor in the past year for the most-listened-to woman on radio, who celebrated the 30-year anniversary of her nighttime radio program last year. In 2016, Delilah also received the NAB Marconi Award for “Network/Syndicated Personality of the Year” and she was inducted into the National Radio Hall of Fame.
Delilah said, “My career, some would say my entire life, revolves around storytelling. It’s what I do. There are so many PDs and GMs who have been good to me, encouraged me, and gave me an opportunity to tell stories. That turned into great ratings, and an amazing, ongoing relationship with the audience. My thanks to everyone involved, and to the NAB, for allowing me such an honor.”
