From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Narelda Jacobs has been the lead news anchor for Ten News at Five in Perth, Western Australia since 2008.
Jacobs graduated from the WA Academy of Performing Arts and began her career at GWN in Bunbury. She joined Ten News in Perth in 2000, eventually becoming their court reporter, and also filling in as weather presenter for over summer.
In 2008, after the sudden death of news anchor Charmaine Dragun, Network Ten announced that production of their Perth news bulletin would return to Perth from Sydney, and selected Jacobs as the new anchor.
Jacobs is the first Aboriginal, and first openly lesbian newsreader in Western Australia. She lives in Perth with her partner and teenage daughter.
