Lindsey Brown was hired at WMC in August 2011 to anchor the station's then new 4 p.m. broadcast.

Now, she joins Kym Clark and Andrew Douglas on the anchor desk as part of a three anchor morning team. Before this, she had never worked mornings and admittedly never even considered it.  As a lifelong night owl, Lindsey had to change everything about her lifestyle to wake up at 2:30 a.m., but she says it has been worth it.

"I love the energy of our morning team. We start at 4:30 a.m. with just as much energy as you see at 7 a.m. when we go off the air. People tell me they love getting their day started with us and that is cool. Anchoring mornings is a dream I didn't even know I had," said Lindsey.

Before moving to Memphis, Lindsey anchored weeknights in Meridian, Mississippi at WTOK-TV. She's a Mississippi native. Grew up in the Mississippi Gulf Coast town of Long Beach and graduated from Ole Miss (hotty toddy).

She's a proud Midtown Memphis resident. Once she's off work every midday, she hits the streets running, reads foreign crime novels, and shares her work/personal experiences on her lifestyle blog at www.lindseybrownblog.com.

She's also addicted to social media. Read her tweets at @lindseyrbrown. Facebook posts at lindseybrown-news and Instagram pics at lindseyrbrown (many of her cat, Bridget).

Her favorite local organization is Big Brothers Big Sisters of Memphis through which she has a teenage little sis.
