Curiosity, tenacity, and an ability to read and write are the key ingredients to finding success in the news reporting industry, says Mary Ellen Keating. Keating was a news reporter for 10 years after college, gaining experience as a beat reporter and eventually hosting her own talk show and news reporting program. 

“You cannot be a great writer without being a good reader” says Keating. 

After graduating from Marywood University in 1979 with a degree in communications with a concentration in television news and public relations, Keating knew that she wanted to be on TV.
