Pine Street neighbor Cristina Ramirez was recently interviewed for a segment about the area’s growing diversity.
From Times Dispatch article about the Radio IQ radio show “UnMonumental”:
Libby records voice-overs for “UnMonumental” inside her bedroom closet. She recently moved an angular, yellow story booth into the main branch of the Richmond Public Library, where interviews are recorded.
Cristina Ramirez was a library manager at the public library when she met Libby. For her segment, Ramirez talked about an encounter she had at the library with a mother and young girl, who, after realizing Ramirez spoke Spanish, said, “Wow, you’re like me.”
Ramirez said Libby is an engaging interviewer and stressed the importance of having a radio segment that showcases the city’s diversity.
