Erica Farber

In her two terms at the FCC, Clyburn (D) has been a strong advocate for enhanced accessibility in communications for disabled citizens. 

She has fought to promote strong competition across all communications platforms and media ownership that reflects the demographics of America.

The Radio Show is radio’s premier annual event where radio professionals from every market size and business sector come together to get revenue-generating ideas, network with business partners and enjoy one-of-a-kind special events.
