Dawn White joined CBS News Texas KTVT Dallas - Fort Worth as a multiskilled journalist in February 2024.
White came from 11Alive WXIA Atlanta where she was also a multiskilled journalist (MSJ) starting in November 2021.
The regional Edward R. Murrow Award winner previously worked as a:
- Hybrid news/sports reporter at First Coast News WTLV - WJXX Jacksonville, Florida
- Anchor/reporter/traffic anchor/Baltimore Ravens feature reporter for WBAL News Radio Baltimore, Maryland
- Reporter/fill-in anchor for ABC27 WHTM Harrisburg, Pennsylvania
- Fill-in traffic anchor at WGAL Lancaster, Pennsylvania
- Weekend evening anchor NBC25 WHAG Hagerstown, Maryland
- Assignment editor at WPMT FOX43 York, Pennsylvania
The classically trained pianist and former competitive swimmer and figure skater adopted a Hurricane Harvey rescue dog named "Houston" so he is now back in his home state. Now you might say White is in the wrong part of the state because of this fact. But no, she named her new shelter rescue dog "Dallas" last March!
White graduated magna cum laude from the University of Maryland’s Philip Merrill College of Journalism. The Native American Journalists Association member also graduated summa cum laude from Carroll Community College while working full-time as a single mother to her son David.
