As many of you know, African American broadcast pioneer Raphael ("Ray") Taliaferro was found deceased on December 2, 2018 in Kentucky.
Ray was a San Francisco legend and is said to be the first African American talk show host on a major market radio station in the country when he was hired in 1967 at KNEW AM Radio. His radio career spanned decades and he was the well-known overnight host on KGO Radio.
A Public Memorial is being hosted this coming Saturday, January 12, 2019 beginning at 11:00 a.m. at the San Francisco Commonwealth Club where Mr. Taliaferro served on its Board of Governors.
