The 2015 Future African-American Future Leaders in Radio List

We’ve been told our increasingly popular list of future African-American leaders, now in its third year, has become a recruiting tool for many companies. Kudos to those on our 2013 and 2014 lists who have advanced in radio — reinforcing the accuracy of our selection process. As it has in previous years, this list includes both experienced pros and young talent who all have one thing in common: They are making a lot of noise in the radio industry.

They are not afraid to challenge the status quo, take chances, and work as hard as it takes to make it to the next level. Every member of this list was nominated by a respected peer and voted on by a panel of experienced managers across the industry. All the individuals on the pages that follow are gifted and respected and above all have a passion and love for radio that will result in their becoming their industry’s next group of leaders. Radio Ink is pleased and proud to present the 2015 African-American Future Leaders in Radio.
