Remembering NPR 'Founding Mother' Susan Stamberg

24 Oct 2025

Description

As longtime co-host of All Things Considered, Stamberg was the first woman to anchor a national news program in the U.S. People weren't used to hearing women's voices on the radio. "We were imitating men, so I was lowering my voice to sound as authoritative as I could," she said. Stamberg died Oct. 16. She spoke with Terry Gross in 1982, 1993, and 2021. Learn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoicesNPR Privacy Policy
