Now you can follow Jen wherever she goes!

You may not see her on the news every day, but you will see Jen Dalton everywhere else on Local 12 and The CW Cincinnati.  She’s the first station personality who doesn’t live in the news department.  You’ll see Jen hosting a variety of programs and events on Local 12 and The CW Cincinnati, working with station partners from across the Tri-State. You can also see her work on www.Local12.com and www.CWCincinnati.com.

Jen is originally from Columbus, Ohio but she’s spent most of her adult life here in the Tri-State Area.  She graduated from Miami University with a BS in Communication and a BA in Spanish. Her first job out of college was as an intern with WOXY, 97X radio.  

Jen is a huge fan of theater and acting and that love for the arts is what drew her to performing.  She began acting in local commercials and on area stages. After getting bit by the acting bug, Jen landed her first television job as co-host of Cinema 64 with Bob Herzog. Jen was reunited with Bob when she made the switch to Local 12 in October 2006.  They worked together on Bengals Nation.

When Jen is not on the air she continues to perform on-stage and behind the scenes as a playwright. (Jen’s 2007 play “Mad” received a CEA nomination for Best Alternative Show.)  She also loves music and is often in the crowd at concerts.  Jen loves baseball and Mixed Martial Arts as well.  She is the post-fight interviewer for the MMA Bigshow promotion.  Jen also likes to stay involved in community activities.  She is always happy to donate her time to local organizations, and is particularly passionate about those that promote mental health and animal welfare.
