Sarah Bradley

Sarah is not only an excellent MC but is also a talented jazz singer.

You may remember her as the co-host with Brendon Pongia of Good Morning on TVNZ until 2012. Since then, Sarah has been a reporter with One News in Wellington and now Auckland.

She just returned from a two-year stint in New York where she was Communications Adviser to the New Zealand Permanent Mission to the UN during our time on the Security Council. Highlights include coordinating the New Zealand Prime Minister’s visit and a joint press conference with New Zealand Foreign Minister Murray McCully and British Foreign Secretary, Boris Johnson.

Sarah was originally in New York from 1991 until 2001 where she attended performing arts college and then segued into television reporting and presenting. Since returning home, she has reported and presented for Three News (now Newshub), worked in radio on Radio Live and as a presenter and reporter for TVNZ.

Sarah also loves to sing jazz and the Great American songbook, a genre of music nurtured during her years in New York.  In her spare time Sarah writes, cooks, gardens, scuba dives, skis and travels.
