Mona
Scott
writes a popular
daily broadcast grammar column in NewsBlues, called "Mrs.
B's Grammar Yammer." She has also written and
published a text book on broadcasting grammar.
A former primary anchor
at Cleveland's WKYC and two Columbus stations, WCMH
and WBNS, Mona also anchored mornings at Orlando's WKMG.
She retired from
television in 1998, after a 28 year career. Mona is a graduate of Bethany
College and is a multiple Emmy winner.
The neighborhood cows,
horses, and dogs know Mona. They come running to the fence when they
see her walk down the road with her bag of apple-flavored grain
wafers. She's "the bovine, equine, canine treat lady" and
proud of it.
Mike and Mona live in horse country near the north central Florida
town of Reddick.
