For twenty-seven years Charlotte Green was one of the most iconic newsreaders on Radio 4. Her rich, velvety voice was a staple on the radio and a treat for millions of listeners. Charlotte joined the BBC in 1978 and became one of the regular readers on the Today programme, where her voice proved to be a reassuring constant in the midst of momentous occasions and terrible tragedies alike - her bulletins have covered everything from the fall of the Berlin Wall in 1989 to the 7/7 London bombings in 2005. After leaving Radio 4 in 2013, Charlotte joined Classic FM, where she now presents an arts and culture programme, Charlotte Green's Culture Club. In this highly entertaining and touching autobiography, Charlotte tells the story of the woman behind the voice, with all the endearing qualities that have delighted her listeners for years and gained her various prestigious accolades. The News is Read is a must-have for anyone wanting to spend a few hours in the company of this warm, charming and wonderfully modest woman whose writing is as engaging as her voice.
Charlotte Green joined the BBC after reading English and American Literature at the University of Kent. She was a Radio 4 newsreader and continuity announcer for twenty-seven years, making regular appearances on The News Quiz. Charlotte left the BBC at the beginning of 2013 to pursue a freelance career. She now presents Charlotte Green's Culture Club each week on Classic FM. She also reads the weekly classified football results on BBC Radio 5 Live, the first woman to do so. In 2002 Charlotte was voted the Most Attractive Female Voice on the Radio and in 2009 won the Roberts Radio Special Award for Excellence in Broadcasting. In March 2013 she won the Broadcasting Press Guild's Radio Broadcaster of the Year Award and later that year was inducted into the Radio Academy's Hall of Fame. In November 2013 she received an honorary doctorate from the University of Kent. In her spare time Charlotte enjoys walking in the countryside, visits to the theatre and classical music concerts. She lives in west London.
