LISTEN: Dini Petty on her return to TV at age 80

Veteran broadcaster Dini Petty has stepped back in front of the camera after a 25-year absence from television with Trailblazing Talks with Dini Petty, a new series airing Monday nights on The News Forum.

Launched with a one-hour special on Thanksgiving Monday, the series promises conversations about resilience, courage, and leadership, with a goal in Petty’s words – who is now age 80 – to remind viewers “it’s never too late to step forward with purpose.”

Petty joins Broadcast Dialogue – The Podcast, taking us from her days as a child actor and delivering traffic reports to Toronto radio listeners from a pink helicopter, through her other creative ventures, including the new memoir she’s working on.
