Janet Parker is a Virginia native but is a true southern belle, having been raised in the small South Carolina town of Cheraw, home of Jazz Legend Dizzy Gillespie.

At a very young age Janet knew she would make an impact on those around her in some way, living out her mom’s daily affirmation “You are destined for greatness.”

Janet is a University of South Carolina graduate and joined the WACH Fox News team in July 2008. She currently serves as a lead anchor of Good Day Columbia, a four-hour morning program covering the community, news, and entertainment.

Her level of experience and ability to connect to a wide audience is unmatched. She believes strongly in improving literacy rates and volunteers her time by reading at local elementary schools.

Janet is the face of the American Heart Association for WACH Fox in the fight against Heart Disease, the number one killer among women in the U.S.
