A SHERO's Journey: Rhiannon Giddens

Rhiannon Giddens returns to SHEROES exactly three years since host,
producer, and creator Carmel Holt launched the show as a syndicated
radio hour for public radio (November 17, 2020) with her as its
very first featured interview guest. As SHEROES Radio celebrates
its third anniversary, Carmel welcomes the multi-Grammy and
Pulitzer Prize winning singer, songwriter, multi-instrumentalist,
artist, composer, author, and activist Rhiannon Giddens back to
discuss her third solo outing You're The One, a week following its
Grammy nominations for Best Americana Album and a second for Best
American Roots Performance for a song from that album, making
her a 10-time Grammy nominee. In this wide-ranging conversation,
Rhiannon reflects on the non-linear path taken from opera student
at Oberlin to becoming a Pulitzer Prize-winning opera composer,
what all the accolades and awards mean to her, and the importance
of being a good ancestor in all she does.
