A Brummie born and bred, Marverine's been dabbling in radio for the last thirteen years. After getting her degree in Business Studies in Leicester she opted for presenting on hospital radio, which lead to traffic and travel broadcasting (where she met Mollie Green!) and to hosting her own shows on commercials station in the North West and in Warwickshire. Marverine spent ten years as Personal Assistant to Managing Directors and Chief Execs in different industries. And she's also had stints as a supermarket basket handle-maker(!) and a betting shop cashier. Then one day in 2003, she decided to give it all up and take the plunge to study a postgraduate in journalism at UCE Birmingham. She might look familiar because, since then, she's been a TV reporter on ITV's Central News and 成人论坛 Midlands Today. Best known to 成人论坛 WM listeners as a newsreader, she's now at the helm of the Saturday night show 'Realtalk' between 8 and 10pm across the West Midlands and Warwickshire and co-presented with Rasman from New Style Radio. Marverine says about the Saturday night show: "The show is a heady mix of lively debate about all sorts of news issues affecting black people. With celebrity interviews, some terrific music and a look at the local arts scene thrown in. Saturday nights on 成人论坛 WM should be a date for everyone's diary!" Marverine's also a keen black history buff and recommends these books if you're looking to kick-start your studies: - Race First (The Ideological and Organizational Struggles of Marcus Garvey...) by Tony Martin
