Tonya Mosley has been selected as the third co-host of Boston NPR station WBUR’s Here & Now, a weekday news and talk program distributed on more than 475 NPR stations nationwide. Mosley starts August 5 and will be based in Los Angeles.
Mosley has been the Silicon Valley bureau chief for KQED, the public radio station based in San Francisco. She is also the host of the new podcast Truth Be Told, and an Emmy and Murrow award-winning television, radio, and print journalist. Prior to KQED, Mosley served as a senior reporter covering education for WBUR and, prior to that, had been a television reporter and anchor for several media outlets, including Al Jazeera America.
“We are pleased to anchor Here & Now’s extensive reach by bringing Tonya on as co-host to offer greater coverage on the West Coast,” said WBUR Managing Director of News and Programming, Sam Fleming. “Her impressive reporting and inquisitive nature makes her a great fit to complement our current co-hosts, Robin Young and Jeremy Hobson.”
