Star Harvey joins FOX 11 Los Angeles


Star Harvey has left PIX11 WPIX New York City weekend mornings to be a meteorologist for FOX 11 Los Angeles KTTV.  

If Harvey's name sounds familiar to a Houston TV news watcher, it's because she left CW39 Houston KIAH in April 2022 for the Big Apple Nexstar Media Group-owned station.

The Los Angeles native is reunited with former CW39 Houston chief meteorologist and colleague Adam Krueger at FOX Los Angeles.  

"Now, here I am—standing on the other side of the dream," Harvey posted on Instagram. "I’ve made it back home, not just to Los Angeles, but to the station that inspired me as a little girl. I am grateful beyond words."

This got me thinking: If you want to work in LA or New York, should you send your resume to CW39 right now?  

Former CW39 morning anchor Shannon LaNier is now in New York City with streamer Cheddar News.

Former CW39 reporter Leticia Juarez has been going strong as an ABC7 KABC LA reporter since 2010 - before the NewsFix times.

Now, don't get your hopes up. I once worked at CW39 and am still writing a blog on a free blogger account!  Not everyone can be a winner. It actually takes talent to get to the big time!

Back to Harvey, the "NO WAIT WEATHER + TRAFFIC" morning meteorologist and co-host of the lifestyle show "Houston Happens" joined CW39 in early 2021.

Before her role at CW39, Harvey worked at Nexstar Media Group's KIAH sister station, KREX 5 News, in Grand Junction, Colorado.

Before KREX 5, she was a news assistant at ABC7 KABC Los Angeles.

A California State University, Northridge graduate, Harvey also gained experience as a newsroom editor and anchor for the university-owned radio station 88.5 KCSN. She later earned a geoscience degree from Mississippi State University (MSU).
