A native of Montréal, Shira grew up surrounded by a melting pot of
cultures speaking both English and French. At the tender age of 18,
she decided to leave the cold in Canada for… the cold in Boston where
she studied at Emerson College receiving a BA in TV/ Video Production.
Her last semester found her in the Los Angeles. By day, she interned
at the Ellen DeGeneres Show. By night, she produced Skip Kelly’s ALL
REQUEST NIGHT on STAR 98.7 FM. During this time, Shira’s on-air personality
truly shined when Skip also brought her on board as his co-host for
HITMAN IN THE MORNING , recorded from the Clear Channel headquarters
in L.A. and aired on KISS 106.7 FM in Rochester, NY. After spending
way too much time as a student finding ways to host TV and radio shows
instead of going to frat parties, Shira realized her true passion as
a broadcaster and communicator. Upon graduation, she was hired as an
Associate Producer/Correspondent of a KVVU FOX morning talk show, THE
VEGAS SHOW WITH SHEENA EASTON AND BRIAN MCKNIGHT. Shira booked high-profile
guests such as David Copperfield, and went on the road to cover the
glitz and glam of Vegas, interviewing celebrities like Michael Douglas
and Martin Sheen.

the sagging skin around his eyes caused by a lifetime of squinting, couldn't
be happier with the results of the strabismus surgery he had last month."
