She's the Voice of the Subway, and Now a Grand Marshal of NYC Pride

NYC NOW | Jun 12
You know that voice that tells you to "stand clear of the closing doors" when you take the train? That's Bernie Wagenblast. Bernie has been the voice of the New York City subway since 2009, and this month she's one of four grand marshals at NYC Pride. She joins us to talk about growing up knowing she was trans, and what it took to finally live that truth decades later.
