PHILADELPHIA (CBS) -- Gisele Barreto Fetterman, the second lady of Pennsylvania, was named AL DÍA News' 2022 Media Person of the Year.

The Brazilian-born American graced the final print for the year of the Philadelphia-based multilingual and multicultural media organization.

In a tweet Tuesday, the CEO calls the wife of Senator-elect John Fetterman, "the extraordinary woman behind the victory in a national race for control of the U.S. Senate."

Barreto Fetterman brought Santa Clause to kids in Braddock last week with the help of Good PGH Partner and Fred Rogers Productions.
