Our Next Speaker

Greg McQuade,  Storyteller/Reporter/Anchor at WTVR; "I Have a Story" 

For the last quarter century, Greg McQuade has traveled across Virginia and the world telling unforgettable stories on CBS 6.

A native of Somerville, Massachusetts, Greg earned a BS in Journalism from Northeastern University, and as an undergrad, spent time working as a disc jockey in Hawaii.

He also studied abroad in his ancestral homeland, first working as a political intern in Dublin and later interning for the BBC in Northern Ireland.  After graduation, McQuade got his start in television behind the scenes as an entry level video archivist at WBZ in Boston. His first reporting job took him to Maine in 1997. He returned home the next year.

Then, in 2000, McQuade packed up his Celtic pride, put on his Red Sox gear and headed south, joining WTVR as a military and political affairs reporter. He's been with WTVR ever since having won over 105 Emmy Awards.
