Arthel NevilleCo-host of GOOD DAY LIVE, Senior Correspondent, |
Arthel Neville (born 20 October 1962 in New Orleans, Louisiana), is an American journalist and television personality. She began her career while a junior at the University of Texas at Austin School of Journalism. As the first black female reporter at KVUE-TV, her general assignment beat took her to the streets of Austin covering live breaking news, politics, education, health and human-interest stories. Arthel also spent several years at KHOU in Houston and WVUE and WWL in New Orleans as an anchor and reporter. Later, she worked at Fox News Channel as an anchor,correspondent, and weekly contributor on The O'Reilly Factor, as a senior correspondent on the Fox Network's syndicated news magazine Fox Files, and at CNN, where she hosted "Talk Back Live With Arthel Neville" (becoming the first African-American woman to host her own show on the network), and anchored morning, daytime, and weekend news from CNN's Atlanta and New York City bureaus. Arthel's experience extends outside of hard news into the world of entertainment and celebrities. She hosted and co-produced the one-on-one celebrity interview show Extreme Closeup on E! Entertainment Television. She launched Extra for Warner Brothers studios, becoming the first African-American female to host a nationally syndicated entertainment news magazine program. In 1993, Arthel co-hosted the Miss Teen USA pageant with Dick Clark, and in 1994, she co-hosted the Miss Universe pageant in Manila, Philippines with Entertainment Tonight's Bob Goen. She has also appeared on Monk (TV Series), Girlfriends, Moesha, Cybill, Living Single, and The Fresh Prince of Bel Air. Arthel later co-hosted Good Day Live with Steve Edwards and Debbie Matenopoulos, hosted Celebrity Hobbies on the DIY Network, and served as a correspondent for the revival of the syndicated news magazine A Current Affair in 2005. On that show, she garnered much acclaim for her coverage of Hurricane Katrina in her hometown of New Orleans. She herself lost her family home and all of her relatives were displaced. She subsequently established "Arthel's Angels," a non-profit hurricane relief website. In March 2006, she joined the Fox News-produced syndicated news magazine Geraldo at Large as the West-Coast bureau chief and correspondent. She co-hosted The View (November 2-3, 2006) and has been speculated to be a front-runner to fill the chair once occupied by Star Jones Reynolds. |
