For 22 years Tina Santorineou during 1972 – 1994, was the voice of the Greek American community in the Metropolitan area of New York; an era when satellite television and the internet did not exist.
The broadcast: “The Sound of Greece” hosted on an American 24 hour radio station became a means of expression for Greek Diaspora organizations, federations, communities, schools, and businesses. “The Sound of Greece” was also a listening point for politicians, Greek and Cypriot artists who visited the United States, and American figures when they wanted to address the Greek Diaspora.
