2008 Associated Press Reporter of the Year Natasha Robin was born and raised in Saint Bernard Parish. She started her career right here at Fox 8 News at just 17 years old as a Production Assistant.
By her senior year in college at the University of New Orleans, Natasha was an assignment editor and shortly after graduation she began producing.
With a passion for television both behind the scenes and on camera, Natasha started shadowing various reporters in the field and eventually was promoted to the weekend reporter at Fox 8 News.
Now, Natasha is a full time general assignment reporter and loves telling the stories of others. Natasha lost her home and everything she owned during Hurricane Katrina in Saint Bernard but has since rebuilt in the parish.
"The parish is my home and always will be", she explains. "I wouldn't live anywhere else. The people there and in New Orleans are unique and have the greatest stories to tell."
Besides winning the prestigious AP award, Natasha has also won first place in the New Orleans Press Club's Health and Science category in 2008. She was also nominated for an Emmy.
