The Pittsburgh Walk of Fame will induct its second round of stars on Tuesday, October 13th at 10:30am! Nancy Polinsky Johnson, founder and executive director, joined Jim Cunningham live on the QED Morning Show to talk about this year's group.
The Pittsburgh Walk of Fame is located on Smallman Street in the Strip District, between 18th and 19th streets. This year's starts include Martha Graham, H.J. Heinz, Henry Mancini, Shirley Jones, and more. Mario Lemieux will be in attendance to accept on his own behalf. Nancy, a longtime collaborator on QED Cooks, talks about why she started the organization and how inductees are selected.
