Sue Lawley
Susan "Sue" Lawley, OBE (born 14 July 1946) is an English broadcaster.
Early life and education
Born in Sedgley, Staffordshire, England, and brought up in the Black Country, she was educated at Dudley Girls High School and graduated in modern languages from the University of Bristol where, due to peer pressure, she changed her Dudley accent to one closer to received pronunciation. She started her career at the BBC in Plymouth.
Career
She began her professional career as a trainee reporter on the Western Mail and South Wales Echo between 1967 and 1970, during which she shared a house in Cardiff with Michael Buerk. She then moved to BBC Plymouth as a subeditor and freelance reporter from 1970 until 1972. In 1972, she gained prominence as one of the reporters/presenters of the BBC TV's news magazine Nationwide which she appeared on until 1975, when she was offered the main anchor role on the nightly news show Tonight. Lawley left Tonight on maternity leave shortly after its launch and did not return to the show. Instead she rejoined Nationwide as one of the two main anchors, alongside Frank Bough. Lawley remained with the show until it came to a close in 1983.
