We are thrilled to present Marilyn Denis as our special guest for the 10th Anniversary! Star of her own daily TV Show on CTV and a long-time friend of WLS – Marilyn will inspire and entertain us on Saturday March 24th!
Marilyn Denis, one of the busiest, most fun-loving – and quite honestly, one of the nicest people in broadcasting –is back at the Women’s Lifestyle Show in 2012 to help us celebrate our 10th Anniversary! As one of our most popular speakers we are making extra room at the Chatelaine Main Stage for Marilyn!
Marilyn is also back on TV -she made her highly anticipated return to television early 2011, as host of her own daytime series, THE MARILYN DENIS SHOW.
THE MARILYN DENIS SHOW airs weekdays on CTV and provides Marilyn’s audience with the best in entertainment and lifestyle television.
A definite trailblazer, Marilyn became the first female DJ at KRPL in Moscow, Idaho. She then moved to Calgary where she held various radio positions including programmer, music director, and traffic reporter. But it wasn’t until she auditioned to become Roger Ashby’s co-host, that Marilyn found her niche. After interviewing dozens of broadcasters and actresses, Marilyn breezed into CHUM FM in July 1986. After chatting with her for a few brief minutes, Roger immediately remarked, “I think we’ve found the right one.”
Marilyn has always balanced her dynamic radio career with her candid television presence. She first began her career in television by reporting on sports, weather, and entertainment at CFCN-TV (CTV Calgary) and working as a freelance reporter for TSN. Marilyn also shared hosting duties on Bravo!’s Gemini Award-winning concert series LIVE AT THE REHEARSAL HALL and was host of the popular daily show CITYLINE for nearly 20 years.
A triple Gemini Award winner (including back-to-back Viewers Choice Awards), Marilyn received The Rosalie Award, honouring Canadian women who have paved the way for others in radio broadcasting in 2006.
Always entertaining she brings her candid presentation directly to us at the Women’s Lifestyle Show on Saturday March 24th. Come early to get the best seat!
