Ms. Martin was interviewed by Sky Radio, as part of its "Salute to Women in Leadership," summary
in Time Magazine, Global Edition, December 15, 2008. Hear her interview at http://www.skyradionet.
com/americanbiz.cfm. The interview was aired on American Airlines from December 16, 2008 through
January 31, 2009. Coincidentally, January was National Stalking Awareness Month; her interview was
particularly timely, then, since she is discussing a workplace stalking case -- her own litigation against
Howard University Law School, where she was a law professor.

cases, including Gantt v. Security USA and Martin v. Howard University and Alice Gresham
