Author Biography
ANNE MARIE ANDERSON is a three-time Emmy award winning
sports broadcaster, keynote speaker and author. Having spent more than three decades in
sports television both behind and in front of the camera, she has covered six
Olympic Games, heavyweight title fights, golf's majors, NBA/MLB playoffs and
the Super Bowl among countless other marquee events. With multiple Emmy Awards under her belt for
her behind the scenes contributions to ESPN's SportsCenter, Anderson made the
audacious move to give up her producer role at the network's headquarters in
Connecticut and move cross country to California to create the life she
wanted. Within a week of arriving in
Manhattan Beach ESPN offered her a contract that ended up more than doubling
her salary. Soon she began to examine
other areas of her life in which she sought to make changes and challenge the
status quo. In 2000 Anne Marie set out
for a new challenge in front of the camera as a play by play announcer, a role
that until that time had been traditionally occupied by men. Since then, Anderson has become one of the
most experienced female play by play announcers in the country calling live
sporting events on a variety of networks including ESPN, ABC, NBC, Fox and TBS.
