Three-time Emmy® nominee, Kim Stephens spends her days co-hosting Great Day, the popular five-hour morning show on KMPH Fox 26 in Fresno. After receiving a B.A. from California State University in Chico, Stephens’ career began in 1988 at KERO in Bakersfield, moving to WBIR and WVLT in Knoxville, Tennessee before re-locating to KNTV as part of their technology reporting team. By the fall of early 2003, she had taken on an anchor position at KMPH Fox 26 and the opportunity to help launch a new morning program. That show became Great Day where Stephens continues to maintain an instant connected with all of her viewers. She also anchors the station’s weekday Midday newscast and co-hosts the annual St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital telethon. Stephens finds time to be an ambassador to the community by volunteering as mentor and motivational speaker, dealing with topics of workplace protocol, healthy living, positive personal and professional growth and volunteerism. Her community involvement includes working with Muscular Dystrophy, Sunnyside Taekwondo Parent Club, Reading for the Blind and Dyslexia, YMCA, MAAD, MS Society, United Way, Ronald McDonald House and the Salvation Army. A two-term member of the NATAS Board of Governors, Stephens was recently elected Regional Vice President for Fresno.
