Radiolab appoints Webster as senior correspondent

Molly Webster has filled the newly created role of senior correspondent at Radiolab.

In this role, Webster will continue to do deep investigative reporting and tell surprising stories, along with providing mentorship and editorial guidance to the production team.

Previously, Webster has developed, produced and hosted “Gonads,” Radiolab’s critically acclaimed podcast and live event series “about the parts of us that make more of us.” She has also worked at World Science Festival for more than 2 years as an editorial producer.

Creator and host Jad Abumrad said:

“Molly is such a wildly talented and powerful storyteller. Her work has been an anchor for Radiolab listeners for years, and even more so during the pandemic. As the team has expanded and we continue to evolve, I’m thrilled to see Molly take on this important new role and can’t wait to hear what she comes up with.”
