DIANE REHM

Diane Rehm is one of the best known voices in the history of public radio, both in the United States and several foreign countries. As a radio talk show host and producer at WAMU 88.5, she has interviewed many of the  "who's who" in Washington, including Senator John McCain, former president Bill Clinton, and former Secretary of State Colin Powell. Ms. Rehm received the coveted George Foster Peabody Award in 2010 for setting the gold standard of talk radio on The Diane Rehm Show.

In 1998, Ms. Rehm developed spasmodic dysphonia (SD), which threatened her career and forced her off the air for several months. Her courage and resolution led her back on the air, to continue her amazing career.

She is married to John Rehm, who has been diagnosed with Parkinson's disease. Along with Diane's leadership role in the world of spasmodic dysphonia, she is a national advocate for effective treatments for those living with Parkinson's.
