Jenna Wolfe
,
Sports Anchor, WABC-TV
Jenna Wolfe joined the Eyewitness News Sports department in July of 2004 after two years at the Madison Square Garden Network. Before that, she blazed a trail in Philadelphia as the first female sportscaster on a local broadcast television news program at WPHL. Jenna also spent professional time in Binghamton at WICZ-TV and WUHF-TV in Rochester. Jenna's love of sports dates back to her childhood in the Caribbean. Born in Jamaica and raised in Haiti, Jenna's family fled the island nation during the political unrest of the late 1980's. Jenna often tests the limits of her sanity with a wide array of extreme sports, including sky diving, jet skiing and occasionally anchoring a show without a teleprompter, though she admits the last one is a little labor-intensive. She lists weekday workouts, weekend racquetball, anything Seinfeld-related, and watching football on a snowy Sunday as some of her favorite things. Oh, and chocolate. She's completely indifferent towards golf. She shoots around 90.... on the back nine. A Manhattan resident, Jenna is fluent in French and Creole and holds a degree in French and English from Binghamton University. (2007)
