In this captivating episode, Dr. Denise Nicholson sits down with media trailblazer, educator, and author Lady Dhyana Ziegler, affectionately known as Lady D, to discuss her remarkable book "Midnight Train from Georgia." More than a behind-the-scenes look at the iconic Gladys Knight and the Pips, this conversation weaves together music history, personal legacy, and the powerful role of faith and family.
Lady D shares firsthand accounts of growing up near the Apollo Theater, her family’s ties to the music world, and her close connection to William Guest, her brother-in-law and one of the original Pips. From their humble beginnings in a Baptist church in Atlanta to global stardom through Motown Records, she recounts the group's journey through early performances, betrayals in the industry, and the resilience that kept them together for 37 years.
Listeners will also get a glimpse of Lady D's own dynamic career in journalism and broadcasting, her mentors like Alex Haley, and her dreams of bringing the group's story to the big screen.
