Gwen Ifill honored in Forever stamp dedication ceremony

A familiar PBS NewsHour face may soon grace your mailbox.

The late NewsHour co-anchor Gwen Ifill is being commemorated by the U.S. Postal Service with a Forever stamp this year. USPS will celebrate the release of the stamp in a dedication ceremony on Thursday at a Washington, D.C., church that Ifill attended for years.

The ceremony at the Metropolitan African Methodist Episcopal Church starts at 11 a.m. ET on Jan. 30, the same day sheets of the stamp will be available to purchase. Watch live in our player above.
