Dr. Marsha Della Giustina Scholarship One-Time Donation

Dr. Marsha Della Giustina tirelessly spent more than a half-century in broadcast journalism, beginning her career as New England’s first female news producer at Boston’s ABC affiliate WCVB-TV, before being recruited to help launch one of the nation’s first undergraduate broadcast journalism programs at Emerson College in Boston. During her years at Emerson, which spanned four decades from 1977 until her retirement in 2021, Dr. Della Giustina, who passed away in June 2023, became a mentor to thousands of reporters and producers.

As a longtime member of RTDNA, she launched one of the largest regional journalism conferences in the nation, sponsored annually by RTNDA (later RTDNA), The Associated Press and Emerson College.  Under her guidance and mentorship, both in and out of the classroom, Marsha’s students were often recognized with awards from the AP, the Society of Professional Journalists and the National Academy of Television Arts and Sciences. In keeping with Marsha’s 50+ years of educating and mentoring journalists, her legacy lives on through the Dr. Marsha Della Giustina Scholarship.
