Delilah Named 2024 MIW Airblazer
• Mentoring and Inspiring Women in Radio, Inc. (MIW), in association with Morning Show Boot Camp are delighted to announce that Radio Hall of Fame personality Delilah, host of the Premiere-syndicated Delilahshow — the most-listened-to woman on the radio in the U.S. — as the recipient of the 9th annual 2024 MIW Airblazer Award.
The MIW Airblazer Award stems from an alliance formed in 2015 between MIW and Morning Show Boot Camp (MSBC). Each year’s recipient is traditionally chosen by the prior year’s recipient, and recognized for her dedication and contributions to the broadcast industry and to the communities she serves. Delilah will be honored with 2024 Airblazer Award on Friday, August 9, during Morning Show Boot Camp at the Hard Rock Hotel San Diego.

Delilah said, “I’m honored to be recognized by MIW and MSBC and awarded with the Airblazer Award this year, joining a group of very talented women who’ve also received this award. I do my very best to stay true to my audience relationship and provide the best one-on-one communication I know how. If my actions inspire other women on the air to do the same, then I’m all more humbled by this recognition.”
MIW Board President Ruth Presslaff commented, “Delilah’s dedication to the radio industry, to children, and to communities far and wide has rightfully garnered an impressive collection of awards. MIW is proud to add ‘Airblazer’ to the list. We are, as always, appreciative of Don Anthony for partnering with us on recognizing extraordinary women broadcasters.”
2023 MIW Airblazer Dana Cortez said, “I’m beyond excited to announce I have chosen Delilah as this year’s Airblazer Award from Mentoring and Inspiring Women in Radio.
