About
Marsha Branch
From
the age of six, Marsha Branch repeatedly
brought
home academic reports from
school with one thing that was always consistent, her behavior. That
section read something like: "Marsha is a
good student, but
she is too talkative!" She decided that she would make good on these
comments and would talk for a living. She began working in the Media at
the age of 17, when after completing an
internship at the Caribbean Broadcasting Corporation's, then
Liberty FM, she was asked to stay on and work as an announcer. Back
then she was famous for her "Mellow Moods", an hour
of mellow music, between 6 and 7 p.m. She steadily began her climb to
success by moving to the newsroom first as a reporter, then a presenter
and co-producer of then Business show
"Business Beat" and finally as a news anchor at the
age of 21. But Marsha Branch had her
sights set on a Master's Degree,
and after completing a double major in Sociology and Psychology at the
University of the West Indies, Cave Hill Campus, she moved to London in
2001 and graduated a year later with a Master's in Television
Journalism. She also presented for the BBC World Service and hosted and
produced her own show, BBC Caribbean Magazine.
