"I'm happy to have this honor because it's a long time coming," said Norman E. Burnett with The Tymes.
The Tymes, a doo-wop group from the 50s, was among the inductees.
Also honored with a plaque were former Governer Ed Rendell, The Bacon Brothers, James DePreist, radio host John DiBella, and Patty Jackson, among others.
"To be on this walk with so many greats, and to be the first woman in radio, because I stand on the backs of many great women," said Jackson, WDAS-FM radio host. "I am overjoyed."
Jackson told 6abc she's currently writing a book about her life in radio, empowering others, and overcoming a major health scare.

"I was already coming for Patty and then they added me to the list, and I was like 'Amazing!'" he said.
The Tony, Emmy, and Grammy award-winner had a message for Philadelphia's youth.
"Allow the resources of this city to support you as they've supported me. You can go as far as you dream," said Odom.
