Since 2010 she has operated national consultancy Radman Communications, which has provided communications strategy services to industry giants such as Ketchum and MWWPR.

Radman was previously senior VP and marketing director at Chicago-based communications agency Cramer-Krasselt Public Relations, and was managing director at Washington, D.C.-based public affairs and marketing communications firm Stanton Communications, Inc. Prior to that she founded and served as CEO for Denver-based shop Brown Radman Wolper, which she sold in 1999 to New York-based PR/IR agency KCSA Worldwide and served as managing partner.

Stevens Group managing partner Art Stevens in a statement said Radman’s “experience with PR and ad agencies across the U.S. brings an indispensable range of knowledge and experience to our firm, not to mention the relationships she has cultivated. She embraces the fundamental philosophy that excellence in practicing PR is, by far, the backbone of any good agency.”
