Taryn Asher
I anchor FOX 2 News at 5, 6, 10, and 11 p.m. — leading our evening newscasts with a deep passion for truth, accountability, and connection. Born and raised in Michigan, I’ve spent my career reporting across the state, earning 10 Emmy Awards for investigative work and on-air storytelling.
Whether I’m chasing breaking news, uncovering the truth, or sharing stories that inspire change, I’m always committed to digging deeper and holding those in power accountable.
But at the end of the day, my greatest joy is being a mom. My daughter reminds me every day of what really matters. I also love spending time with family and friends, traveling, and embracing the beautiful chaos that comes with three lovable (and wild) dogs.
I’m more than a journalist — I strive to be a voice people can trust.
