I grew up in Manitowoc, Wisconsin, a city about 40 miles south of Green Bay on the Lake Michigan shore. That means I became a Packers' fan by birth!\n\nI earned a degree in broadcast communication from Marquette University in Milwaukee. My first job in the business was for a radio station in my hometown doing fishing reports. For three summers, I got up at 4 a.m. to talk about how the fish were biting in Lake Michigan. Just before graduation, I landed a job at WFRV-TV in Green Bay, where I spent nearly two years learning the ropes of a newscast off-air as a producer.\n\nA chance to be in front of the camera as a reporter brought me to Topeka and WIBW-TV in May 1996. I've covered crime, the legislature and a host of other topics, and am also responsible for the weekly To Your Health feature. I'm proud to say my reporting work has earned numerous awards from the Kansas Association of Broadcasters, Kansas Associated Press, American Cancer Society and RTNDA, and our news team has twice earned smaller market Best Newscast honors from the Heartland Regional Emmys.\n\nIt's my honor to be involved with several area organizations and events, including the Children's Tumor Foundation, American Cancer Society, Easter Seals Capper Foundation, American Heart Association and the Race Against Breast Cancer. For many years, Ralph Hipp and I emceed local segments of the Muscular Dystrophy Association's annual telethon.\n\nI married WIBW-TV Chief Photographer Doug Brown in June of 2000. We live in Topeka with our many dogs and cats. In our spare time, we enjoy working outdoors, scrapbooking, running and searching for great antiques!","slug":"","instagram":"wibwmelissa","native_app_rendering":false,"fuzzy_match":false,"contributor":false,"status":true,"custom_gray_stationname":"wibw","custom_gray_stationdepartment":"news","last_updated_date":"2023-08-15T20:18:03.887Z","custom_gray_displaypriority":1,"website_url":"/authors/melissa.brunner/","headlines":{"basic":"Melissa Brunner"},"description":{"basic":""},"social_links":[{"site":"email","url":"Melissa.brunner@wibw.com"},{"site":"facebook","url":"https://www.facebook.com/WIBWMelissaBrunner/"},{"site":"twitter","url":"Melissa_Brunner"},{"site":"instagram","url":"wibwmelissa"}],"type":"author","custom_gray_biovideouuid":"","hasVideoCenterVideo":false,"promo_items":{"basic":{"type":"image","url":"https://author-service-images-prod-us-east-1.publishing.aws.arc.pub/gray/20c2ad9d-dfa0-4518-a0ad-b716373c0829.png","auth":{"3":"85b49e1c5fda9b9887d523ccc5b6945b5e7962ce7b9ce3997d9e9907db4f688b"}}},"dataTransformedAt":"2025-02-18T00:00:03.763Z"},{"_id":"david.oliver","firstName":"David","lastName":"Oliver","byline":"David Oliver","image":"https://author-service-images-prod-us-east-1.publishing.aws.arc.pub/gray/16cd9517-9db8-456f-b919-aaecf3d91b5c.png","email":"david.oliver@wibw.com","affiliations":"","education":[],"awards":[],"books":[],"podcasts":[],"facebook":"https://www.facebook.com/WIBWDavid","bio_page":"/authors/david.oliver/","location":"Topeka, Kan.

David started his broadcast career in high school with an internship and part-time job at KAKE-TV in Wichita. It was June 1996 when David landed a highly sought-after WIBW-TV summer internship. That experience led to a full-time reporting job with 13 NEWS in November 1996. During his first 4-year journey with WIBW-TV, David also anchored weekend newscasts, and weeknight newscasts through November 2000.\n\nAfter Topeka, David spent 3 years as a weeknight news anchor/reporter at KTVB-TV in Boise Idaho. From there, David traveled to Springfield Missouri for an award-winning 17-year tenure as weeknight anchor at KOLR-TV. Prior to his return to Kansas and 13 News, David served in a communications/public relations management position for one of the largest school districts in the Denver Colorado metro.\n\nDavid’s journalism/reporting work has been honored by state press and broadcast associations in Kansas, Idaho & Missouri. David also earned a regional EMMY award for ‘Team Coverage’ reporting. A major broadcast project that David co-produced and co-hosted in Missouri was recognized with a prestigious Edward R. Murrow Award.\n\nReturning home to WIBW-TV in September 2022 is one of the proudest moments of David’s career. “My journalism roots were firmly planted in Topeka, in the 13 newsroom on Menninger Hill, way back in 1996” says David. “I feel so fortunate to have been invited back to a place I love, to bring the news-of-the day to my fellow Kansans”. \n\nDavid is the very proud father of two children, Britney and Dawson, who live in Missouri. When David isn’t in the field or on the anchor desk, he enjoys visiting his family in the Wichita area, traveling to new destinations, and trying his hand at new recipes in the kitchen.

I grew up in the tiny town of Panola in Southeast Oklahoma-- attending the same school that my paternal grandparents had, graduating nearly 50 years after them. I received my bachelor's degree from the University of Central Oklahoma in Edmond (north of OKC); Broadcast Communications with an emphasis in News. From there, I got my first TV job at the CBS affiliate in Fort Smith, Arkansas. I stayed for 9 years, working as a producer, reporter, and later weekend anchor during that time.\n\n\n\nOne of my most memorable stories includes a young girl with terminal cancer who desperately wanted to meet her biological father. I was privileged to tell her story, and a private investigator who saw the story managed to track her dad down. They had the opportunity to meet before she passed away. I have never forgotten her. Another time, a photographer and I spent 24 straight hours covering a devastating tornado that hit Waldron, Arkansas. The following morning I did a live shot for the national CBS morning newscast having had no sleep.\n\nI worked for a couple of years as the director of communications and as a non-traditional teacher for Lavaca Public Schools--a district not far from Fort Smith. TV news has a way of getting into your blood, and I wanted to return to broadcasting. I spent 4 years working as an evening anchor in Topeka before feeling called to launch Foster the Cause, a ministry that works to recruit, train, and support new Christian foster and adoptive families through local churches here in Northeast Kansas. I have long volunteered and worked as a child advocate--something I am incredibly passionate about. I did that for three years and was a stay-at-home parent before getting a call about a job opportunity at WIBW 13 News in December 2020. How could I say no to the #1 News Station in Northeast Kansas?\n\nI spent several months working as the digital news content manager for WIBW, managing our website, social media accounts, and live web desk. When the opportunity arose for a morning co-anchor role, I jumped at the opportunity. I feel like I've come full circle; I started my career wanting to be a morning news anchor! My daughters and I love Topeka and Northeast Kansas, and I look forward to waking up with our viewers for many years to come.","slug":"","native_app_rendering":false,"fuzzy_match":false,"contributor":false,"status":true,"custom_gray_stationname":"wibw","custom_gray_stationdepartment":"news","last_updated_date":"2024-03-27T20:15:07.075Z","type":"author","facebook":"https://www.facebook.com/wibwJared/","twitter":"wibwJared","custom_gray_displaypriority":4,"website_url":"/authors/broylesj/","headlines":{"basic":"Jared Broyles"},"description":{"basic":""},"social_links":[{"site":"email","url":"jared.broyles@wibw.com"},{"site":"facebook","url":"https://www.facebook.com/wibwJared/"},{"site":"twitter","url":"wibwJared"}],"custom_gray_biovideouuid":"","hasVideoCenterVideo":false,"promo_items":{"basic":{"type":"image","url":"https://author-service-images-prod-us-east-1.publishing.aws.arc.pub/gray/14585c5d-d19f-48fb-bcfe-aeb601e0a273.png","auth":{"3":"b4b482c4fee14259140642abe55bf22cc1f1823a8701c22b14fa6c6420a21029"}}},"dataTransformedAt":"2025-02-18T00:00:03.763Z"},{"_id":"Victoria.Cassell","firstName":"Victoria","lastName":"Cassell","byline":"Victoria Cassell","role":"Evening Anchor/Multimedia Journalist","image":"https://author-service-images-prod-us-east-1.publishing.aws.arc.pub/gray/9ee2456b-2cd6-49ba-8c80-5e2faa270ba9.png","email":"victoria.cassell@wibw.com","affiliations":"","education":[],"awards":[],"books":[],"podcasts":[],"bio_page":"/authors/Victoria.Cassell/","location":"Topeka, KS","bio":"","longBio":"Growing up in Nairobi, Kenya, I remember watching the news and thinking “I want to do that, it just feels right!” As the child of missionaries traveling between Africa and the United States, my interest in world news expanded, but actually becoming a news reporter/anchor always felt so out of reach, until I attended Indiana University of Pennsylvania. It was at IUP that I majored in Communications Media and joined one of my school’s news production clubs where I finally began to see that my dream was achievable. I got experience behind the cameras, field reporting and floor directing. I even joined my school’s radio station, and hosted my own show called “The Median Mix”, and to my surprise people all over the world tuned in.\n\n\nI took advantage of my university's study abroad program and traveled to South Korea to visit my father’s side of the family, learn and develop more world news knowledge. \n\nIt all led me to Topeka! I’ve been a Morning Producer here at WIBW, and now I report three days a week and anchor the weekend evening shows.\n\nWhat a pleasure it is to tell the many stories of Topeka!

From there, it was off to Washburn University, where I spent a couple years playing basketball while earning my degree in mass media.\n\nEvery day since landing the job at WIBW has been an adventure. One day, you're walking the halls of the Statehouse; the next you're on the set of a soap opera in New York. In fall, you spend Friday nights on the sidelines of high school football games; one spring, I was fortunate enough to cover a Final Four.\n\nI'm married to someone a few of you might know - news anchor Melissa Brunner. While she goes on about her love of the Packers, I've taught her to cheer for the Chiefs and Royals! We share our home with our zoo of cats and dogs, and proudly brag about our nieces and nephews. In addition to spending time with them, you'll find us working in the yard or going for a run. I also try to find time to tinker with my favorite toys - a 1949 Ford pickup and a 1939 Plymouth coupe.\n\nThe best part about my job is the people - I've met some of the most amazing, inspiring people over the years and am looking forward to meeting many more and sharing their stories with you.","slug":"","native_app_rendering":false,"fuzzy_match":false,"contributor":false,"status":true,"custom_gray_stationname":"wibw","custom_gray_stationdepartment":"news","last_updated_date":"2024-02-21T00:07:53.504Z","custom_gray_displaypriority":27,"website_url":"/authors/doug.brown/","headlines":{"basic":"Doug Brown"},"description":{"basic":""},"social_links":[{"site":"email","url":"doug.brown@wibw.com"},{"site":"facebook","url":"https://www.facebook.com/wibwdougbrown"},{"site":"twitter","url":"wibwdoug"}],"type":"author","custom_gray_biovideouuid":"","hasVideoCenterVideo":false,"promo_items":{"basic":{"type":"image","url":"https://author-service-images-prod-us-east-1.publishing.aws.arc.pub/gray/f16bc60d-f2fb-4a54-a333-7b69846fd1ea.png","auth":{"3":"93738a02839f11fae6b94e4dfe65d9bd18d2789fe9403a24874bef0847c41092"}}},"dataTransformedAt":"2025-02-18T00:00:03.763Z"},{"_id":"Jovarie.Downing","firstName":"Jovarie","lastName":"Downing","byline":"Jovarie Downing","role":"Photojournalist","image":"https://author-service-images-prod-us-east-1.publishing.aws.arc.pub/gray/35739216-54fd-4f69-9e94-cfd3dabf70c0.png","email":"jovarie.downing@wibw.com","affiliations":"","author_type":"Staff","education":[],"awards":[],"books":[],"podcasts":[],"facebook":"https://www.facebook.com/wibwjovarie","twitter":"wibwjovarie","bio_page":"/authors/Jovarie.Downing/","location":"Topeka, Kan.","bio":"","longBio":"I have been a photojournalist for WIBW-TV for over 20 years.\n\nI get a kick out of the unpredictability of the stories we cover daily.

Oh wait, maybe it was just out of college. I take that back, it was several years out of college when I started.\n\nAny way, in January of 1989 I walked up the steps into the WIBW building and into a career I love! I knew I wanted to work in the newsroom as a photographer but the only position at the time was a camera operator in the studio. It would be 4 years before News Director Mary Loftus took me from the studio to gathering news on video. Yes! I was finally a photojournalist!!!\n\nThis is the job I knew I wanted since I was in 8th grade while doing \"Career Day\" at WIBW with Ed Rutherford.\n\n\"Never the same\" each day certainly holds true with my job. Whether it is county commission, sporting events, or breaking news- every day is different. Did I say yet that I love my job?\n\nOh, yeah. There is one other event I enjoy covering- TORNADOES!\n\nI have been hunting down the elusive twisters for 15 years. I'm asked many many times if I am ever scared. The answer is no and the reason for that is because of the person sitting in the passenger seat- Rob Peppers! He is the 'King of Chase' and Rob puts us in an area of the storm that is out of harms way.\n\nWe are there to report to WIBW viewers the exact locations of storms and what we are seeing to help in the 13 Weather Team keep you 'safe and informed.'\n\nTechnology has changed a lot in my 15 years of chasing.

I was born in Morocco believe it or not. That's on the northwest part of Africa. My father was in the Navy at the time. From there, we moved to Poplar Bluff, MO where I became fascinated with thunderstorms as a child. That fascination has not faded.\n\nI am a graduate of the University of Missouri Columbia with a Bachelor of Science in Soils & Atmospheric Science. I am certified by the American Meteorological Society and was the 98th meteorologist in the world to obtain the title of \"Certified Broadcast Meteorologist\".\n\nMy first job in television was with KRCG-TV in Jefferson City, MO. I will never forget the 30-mile drive to work at 3AM for the morning shift. I was terribly nervous my first few times on air. The studio was so quiet and my heart was so loud. I can never thank my former boss Mike Roberts enough for his patience and guidance in my first years on air.\n\nI joined WIBW-TV in February of 2001 and have had amazing experiences here. We see everything in Kansas from blizzards to tornadoes. In my time with WIBW-TV, I have reported temperatures ranging from -20 to 110 degrees. Northeast Kansas has such distinct and extreme weather swings. It keeps you on your toes as a meteorologist.\n\nOne of my favorite parts of this job is talking to school kids. The curiosity about weather always reminds me of the feeling that I had at their age. I always wonder which ones of them will become a meteorologist.\n\nI love to try new things and see new places. Of course, my favorite hobby is storm chasing. When severe weather is in our area. I will be in the office and on your television. On the occasion that severe weather is in progress in other parts of the Midwest and will not affect northeast Kansas. You might see me driving toward some of the nastiest clouds in the world.","slug":"","instagram":"wibwjeremy","native_app_rendering":false,"fuzzy_match":false,"contributor":false,"status":true,"expertise":"Weather","custom_gray_stationname":"wibw","custom_gray_stationdepartment":"weather","last_updated_date":"2022-08-30T17:27:39.292Z","custom_gray_displaypriority":1,"website_url":"/authors/Jeremy.Goodwin/","headlines":{"basic":"Jeremy Goodwin"},"description":{"basic":""},"social_links":[{"site":"email","url":"jeremy.goodwin@wibw.com"},{"site":"facebook","url":"http://www.facebook.com/wibwjeremy"},{"site":"twitter","url":"wibwjeremy"},{"site":"instagram","url":"wibwjeremy"}],"type":"author","custom_gray_biovideouuid":"","hasVideoCenterVideo":false,"promo_items":{"basic":{"type":"image","url":"https://author-service-images-prod-us-east-1.publishing.aws.arc.pub/gray/b92a1e43-cb9a-4504-9e15-be68e815f372.png","auth":{"3":"372e73f8ad06d6fc1600d87ccf62effc928268acc93b15c9c5f92e2d722ca3f4"}}},"dataTransformedAt":"2025-02-18T00:00:03.625Z"},{"_id":"doug.meyers","firstName":"Doug","lastName":"Meyers","byline":"Doug Meyers","role":"Meteorologist","image":"https://author-service-images-prod-us-east-1.publishing.aws.arc.pub/gray/a7972002-8a3c-4f06-8a68-0c3c1cf74bfb.png","email":"doug.meyers@wibw.com","affiliations":"","author_type":"staff","education":[],"awards":[],"books":[],"podcasts":[],"facebook":"http://www.facebook.com/wibwdougmeyers","twitter":"wibwDougM","bio_page":"/authors/doug.meyers/","location":"Topeka, Kan.","bio":"","longBio":"I've always been interested in the weather and to be honest I don't really know an exact event that sparked my interest in wanting to become a meteorologist.\n\nI grew up in Omaha, NE and went to the University of Nebraska-Lincoln where I received my Bachelor's of Science in Meteorology so I am a Husker fan.\n\nThe midwest has the best weather and being able to come to Topeka is a dream come true.
