The Museum of Broadcast Communications has revealed the names of the eight new inductees into the Radio Hall of Fame for 2023, including Radio Ink‘s President and Publisher Deborah Parenti.

Along with Parenti, the inductees are John DeBella, Gerry House, Bob Rivers, Pat St. John, Shadoe Stevens, Nina Totenberg, and Charles Warfield. Six of the inductees were chosen through voting by an industry panel of over 950 professionals, while the other two were selected by the Radio Hall of Fame Nominating Committee. The vote was supervised by Andrew Rosen from Miller Kaplan.

The induction ceremony, which will be held in-person, is slated for Thursday, November 2nd, at the InterContinental New York Barclay Hotel in New York City. Christopher “Mad Dog” Russo, a 2022 inductee into the Hall of Fame, will take on the role of Master of Ceremonies for the event. Tickets for the ceremony are currently available for purchase at www.radiohalloffame.com. Part of the proceeds from ticket sales will go to the Museum of Broadcast Communications as a tax-deductible charitable donation.

Co-Chair of the Radio Hall of Fame, Kraig T. Kitchin, stated, “My congratulations to our newest inductees. I’m thrilled to see each individual receive this recognition from the industry they’ve devoted their professional lives to. My thanks to the members of the 2023 Nominating Committee for their tireless work and contributions, as well as to the hundreds of industry members who took time to vote.”

Co-chair Dennis Green added, “On behalf of the Radio Hall of Fame Nominating Committee, we are proud to induct eight individuals into the Radio Hall of Fame who have made an indelible impact upon the industry. It is a pleasure to honor the careers of these individuals who quite simply define excellence in the industry and have earned the right to be called a Hall of Famer. Congratulations!”
