Channel 19 Action News Reporter Catherine Bosley

Catherine Bosley joined the 19 Action News team in April 2005.

Catherine comes to us from WKBN-TV in Youngstown, Ohio, where she started as the crime reporter and back-up anchor, and then worked her way up to morning show co-anchor and noon show anchor.

She's an Ashtabula County native and a Kent State University cum laude graduate. Her career started right out of college at the station she interned at, WICU-TV in Erie, Pa. There she did just about every job in the newsroom -- reporting, fill-in anchoring, weekend weather and weekend assignment editing! Her next stop was WETM-TV in Elmira, N.Y., where she anchored, produced and reported. From there, it was on to WROC-TV in Rochester, N.Y., and then to Youngstown, where in addition to her TV job, she spent a year working for Y-103 radio as a morning show co-host.

So, what does Catherine do in her free time? Her No. 1 hobby is running. She has five marathons under her belt and plans to add many more with hopes of someday qualifying for the famous Boston Marathon. In fact, Catherine is so passionate about running that it's actually how she met her husband, also a runner! She enjoys many other outdoor sports and is a big fan of the Browns and Indians. Catherine enjoys charity work as well. most dedicated to the American Heart Association!
