Introduction

The Marconi Radio Awards are presented annually by the National Association of Broadcasters
(NAB) to the top radio stations and on-air personalities in the United States. The awards
are named in honor of Guglielmo Marconi, the man generally credited as the “Father of
Wireless Telegraphy”. NAB member stations submit nominations. A Task Force determines the
finalists and the Marconi Radio Award Selection Academy votes on the winners, who receive
their awards in the fall.
