Join KMUW for an evening with Joshua Johnson, host of 1A. Johnson will share stories from his public radio career, including his experience hosting 1A, one of the most important daily conversations in America.

Before joining WAMU, Johnson co-created and hosted the provocative nationwide public radio series, Truth Be Told, which explored race in America. Johnson also taught podcasting at the University of California, Berkeley Graduate School of Journalism. He began his public radio career helping launch a unique regional news partnership between Miami’s NPR station, WLRN, and The Miami Herald. Then he served for over five years as morning news host for KQED in San Francisco. He is an active member of the National Association of Black Journalists.
