Celebrating Diane Rehm


Hometown gal Diane Rehm, one of National Public Radio’s most popular show hosts, is signing off after working the airways for decades.  Friends, family and colleagues gathered for a farewell party, emceed by Kojo Nnamdi, at the Willard Hotel, Nov. 10. WAMU began airing “The Diane Rehm Show” in 1979. The 80-year-old survived a disorder that effected her vocal cords, and, after her husband’s death two years ago, became an advocate in the Right to Die movement.
