WTAE television career

[edit]

Fox was named "Best Pittsburgh Newscaster" seven years in a row by the Pittsburgh Tribune Review. During her ten-year television career, she was able to interview many prominent national figures such as Presidents Gerald Ford, Jimmy Carter (during the Iran Hostage Crisis), Ronald Reagan, George H. W. Bush, Governor Michael Dukakis, Senator Ted Kennedy, Senator Joe Biden, Reverend Jesse Jackson, Walter Mondale and Gary Hart. She also covered the 1984 Democratic National Convention in San Francisco. After having her first child in 1986, she retired from WTAE.

The Golden Land

[edit]

In 1990, Fox took over for Wolf Blitzer in PBS's series "The Golden Land". This was a documentary about the history of Israel in the context of the Israeli-Palestinian Conflict

Fox Learning Systems

[edit]

In 1997, Debra founded Fox Learning Systems after personally experiencing problems in the long-term care industry.[1] Using her on-camera experiences, Fox set out to produce software and educational material that makes eldercare staff training fun and exciting.[2] Fox has started her own blog that talks about the many troubles dealing with the elder care industry [3]
