Biography

Creegor started her career as a secretary with the BBC and eventually became a production assistant for BBC Radio Drama and an abridger for the BBC Radio 4 programme, A Book at Bedtime. She became a newsreader on British television on BBC1 and BBC2 and on radio on BBC Radio 4: she was a main presenter on Points West during much of the 1980s.[1]

In 1988, she joined the fledgling Sky News, eventually becoming the news anchor with Bob Friend. She remained at Sky until 2006, when she was released, according to the management, "to make way for new faces".[1]
