Syndicated radio personality Delilah will receive the fourth-annual Insight Award from the Library of American Broadcasting Foundation.
Presented during the NAB Show Welcome on April 7 in Las Vegas, the award will recognize Delilah’s history of excellence in broadcasting and “her profound impact on audiences nationwide,” according to organizers.
LABF said its Insight Award is presented to an individual or organization for an outstanding artistic or journalistic work that enhances the public’s perception of media in our society. Past recipients have included actor, director and educator LeVar Burton, CBS News’ “60 Minutes” and award-winning producer and journalist Soledad O’Brien.
Per a LABF press release, Delilah is the most-listened-to woman on the radio in the U.S. “Her soothing voice, open heart and love of music have expanded her audience to more than eight million weekly listeners on approximately 160 radio stations nationwide.”
Delilah, who celebrated 50 years of radio broadcasting in 2024, has been hosting her current program format since 1984. Her radio show is syndicated by Premiere Network.
Delilah was inducted into the National Radio Hall of Fame in 2016 and the NAB Hall of Fame in 2017, marking the first time in 35 years that a woman had received the distinction.
Additionally, NAB honored her with a Marconi Award for “Network/Syndicated Personality of the Year” in 2016.
“Delilah’s extraordinary ability to connect with listeners, her passion for storytelling and her unwavering commitment to making a difference in the lives of others exemplify the essence of the Insight Award,” said LABF Co-Chairs Heidi Raphael and Jack Goodman.
