Fatima Musa Ibrahim Al-Badri (1923–2009), a Palestinian media figure , was born in Jerusalem . She was the first Arab woman to broadcast her voice on the radio station “ Here is Jerusalem ” in 1946. She is considered one of the first female media figures in the Arab world. She worked in the field of education in 1946, then moved to media work where she presented cultural programs, in addition to news bulletins.
She is descended from a prominent Jerusalemite family. She is the daughter of Sheikh Musa al-Badri . She studied at the Teachers College in Jerusalem and married the late journalist and writer Issam Hammad .
She is considered one of the first female media professionals in the Arab world , after she was accepted into the first Palestine Radio “Here is Jerusalem” which was opened in March 1936, to be the second Arab radio station, and to become a destination for all Arab artists and a beacon for spreading culture and a laboratory for creating media competencies that later contributed to the radio and television media industry in many Arab countries such as Jordan, Syria, Lebanon, Egypt and Iraq.
She was “the first Arab broadcaster to broadcast her voice, and the first woman to sit behind the microphone to present the news bulletin to her listeners, as the number of women on the radio at that time was small, and so she found herself alone in the face of a storm that did not subside until the catastrophe occurred in which half of the country was lost.”
She continued to work in the Palestinian Radio until the Nakba in 1948, then moved with her husband to work in the Syrian Radio in the period between 1950 and 1952; then she worked in the Jordanian Radio in the period between 1952 and 1957.
In the early fifties, she returned to Ramallah , where she worked in the education sector, in addition to reading the news once a day on Radio Jerusalem in Ramallah, at the request of the radio director. She remained there until 1957, when she was forced to return to Damascus with her husband for a year without work as a refugee. She mastered English and German and attended a number of conferences in Europe. She traveled with her husband to Berlin to work for the German Democratic Radio in 1958, and continued there until 1965, when she returned to the city of Ramallah and joined the field of education again. She worked as an Arabic language teacher, then as a librarian at the UNRWA Teachers' House in the city.
She moved to live in Jordan, where she worked in the classification department at the University of Jordan Library in Amman between 1978 and 1983.
She worked at the Jordanian House of Culture and Information in the capital, Amman, and died in 2009 and was buried in Jordan.
