Lunch with Kit Graas and former Radio Luxembourg employees

September 14, 2023

Last Thursday we were invited to an exclusive lunch hosted by Kit Graas, the daughter of Gustave “Gust” Graas, the long-time general director of Radio Luxembourg. The lunch gathered retired former RTL employees. An association for former RTL employees will be founded soon giving them the opportunity exchange their experiences with Radio Luxembourg together.

Our producer Bernard Michaux and production assistant Jil Gaertner were invited to this special lunch. Bernard proudly presented our transmedia project and received valuable feedback from the attendees, who are true witnesses of Radio Luxembourg’s history. This was an invaluable opportunity to gather firsthand information and insights that proved extremely helpful for our project.

The atmosphere was warm and the conversations were lively. We are deeply grateful for having been a part of this memorable lunch, which allowed us to interact with seasoned professionals from the media world, share memories, and meet valuable living witnesses.

The initiative to found an “Amicale” to connect theformer RTL employees demonstrates the deep appreciation for the common history and the importance of this heritage.
