Kelli Cook

Reporter - e-Mail
I was born in Baton Rouge,LA, lived right outside of Chicago for about five years, resided in Memphis since 1989, but I went to college in Tallahassee,FL... confused yet? Well, to put it quite simply Memphis is truly my home.

While growing up in Memphis, I participated in countless drama and public speaking competitions so it was pretty clear early on that theater or the television industry would always play a major role in my life.

It wasn't until I headed down to the sunshine state and enrolled in the journalism program at Florida A&M University (Go Rattlers!!)that I knew that I wanted to make news broadcasting a career.

While at FAMU, I was a member of the National Association of Black Journalists, Kappa Tau Alpha National Journalism Honor Society, as well as the campus radio and television station.

I also did several internships including ABC News in Atlanta, GA. I graduated magna cum laude from FAMU in 2002 with a degree in broadcast journalism and a minor in political science.

When I'm not working I enjoy writing, cheering on the Memphis Grizzlies, or spending time with my number one fans- my family.
