Abby Kidder joined the WTAP-TV news team in July 2006. She grew up in Akron, Ohio, with her parents and three older sisters, Amy, Andrea and Allison.
Abby is thrilled to be in the Mid-Ohio Valley meeting new people and getting involved in the community. She graduated cum laude from Miami University of Ohio with a major in mass communication and a minor in political science.
During her college experience, Abby was a main anchor and reporter for Miami's weekly newscast, covering a variety of hard and soft news stories that mattered most to the Oxford community. She also had extensive internship experience at both WOIO-WUAB Action News in Cleveland and WCPO Channel 9 in Cincinnati. Abby says it was her valuable internship experiences that really made her feel that television news was her professional calling.
Besides gaining valuable journalism experience at Miami, Abby was also a Miami University cheerleader, an active member of her sorority, Alpha Chi Omega, and a campus tour guide.
In her spare time Abby loves to run, watch rerun episodes of Friends, hang out with her wonderful family and friends, follow politics and play with her pug, Phillip!
