My name is Stanley Reese. I grew up in LaGrange, Georgia where I started a writing career as a stringer for the local paper fresh out of high school. During college, I was exposed to radio and "caught the bug". During most of the next eight years, I spent time as a DJ, newscaster and Manager of radio stations in Georgia and Virginia. Mostly, however, I was a full time single Dad to two wonderful kids.

In 1990, I finally got the chance to work in television as a newscaster and sportcaster at a small station in my hometown. Even though I interviewed many sports legends like Jeff Gordon, Greg Maddux and Deion Sanders, my career highlight is reporting the events leading up to the 1996 Olympics in Atlanta.

After that, I figured nothing could compare to watching the world come together for such an event. I changed venues and spent the next five years as a Public Information Officer for a Sheriff's Office. This was an experience. I saw the things viewers never get to see on TV.

2000 brought about a move to Alabama. I now live west of Birmingham and work as a dispatcher for a 9-1-1 center. 

I am married and have five children ages 24, 22, 3 and 2 and 10 months old..

My passions, other than my wife and kids, include writing and gardening.
