Harvard senior Henna Hundal, who grew up in Turlock, California in an immigrant family of almond farmers, was first introduced to radio in high school and she soon fell in love with the medium. “There’s something undeniably raw and real about radio that I find hard to resist,” Hundal said. “There’s no veneers, no smoke and mirrors. It’s the quintessential vehicle for candid conversations.”⠀
⠀
The student-run Harvard Radio Broadcasting (WHRB 95.3 FM) was the first co-curricular activity she joined at Harvard, and it has remained her longest standing commitment. Hundal soon created the “Henna Hundal Show,” a show committed to breaking down contemporary issues in areas like medicine, diplomacy, and humanitarianism, and exploring how the world’s movers and shakers approach them.⠀
⠀
Since its creation, the show has hosted guests such as His Excellency Ban Ki-moon, Bill Gates, and former Massachusetts Governor Michael Dukakis, among other luminaries.⠀
