Susan Ritta

Susan Ritta is a Celtic musician and award-winning radio host from Lincoln, Nebraska. For the past 11 years, she has been host of “Thunder on the Plains,” Nebraska’s only local Celtic radio show, which airs twice weekly on Lincoln’s community radio station KZUM. As a volunteer programmer, “Lady Susan” has interviewed dozens of Celtic artists from around the world for her program, including many O’Flaherty faculty and students alike. Outside of the studio, she is a semi-trained vocalist and plays whistle, flute, guitar, and even a bit of button accordion with both the Lincoln Celtic Players and Out of the House.
