In Memory of Andrea Lewis, June 4, 1957 - November 15, 2009
On November 15, Andrea Lewis died in an apparent heart attack at her San Francisco home. Andrea came to KPFA in 1999 as a co-host of the Morning Show and later became the host of the Sunday Sedition and the Evening News Co-Anchor.
KPFA eulogizes that, "Andrea was a true Renaissance woman with an interest in politics, world affairs, sports, science, music and the arts. She was dedicated to discussing on and off the air the issues of social justice, especially in regards to racial and gender equity. Andrea wrote for the Progressive Magazine, sang with the S.F. Symphony Chorus, and was a former Knight Journalism Fellow at Stanford University."
