Born on Staten Island, N.Y., Linda was the second child of the Rev. Dr. Edward O & Jo Ellen White. She grew up in Akron, Ohio, with her older brother, David, after their father retired from the Army.

She graduated with a bachelor of science degree in journalism from Ohio University in Athens.

Before graduating college, Linda began her journalism career as a reporter at WAKC TV 23, an ABC affiliate, in Akron. She worked there for five years as a court-crime beat reporter and morning cut-in anchor.

Linda went on to the NBC affiliate in Grand Rapids, Mich., where she worked as the noon co-anchor and parenting reporter.

There, Linda became a mom when she adopted her daughter and enjoyed community service at her church, as a board member for several organizations and doing motivational speaking to various groups.

After eight years, she moved on to Buffalo, N.Y., to work at the ABC affiliate.

New to the Birmingham area, Linda is working as a reporter at WVTM NBC 13.

Linda is looking forward to connecting with her father's relatives, decorating her new home and learning the sights and sounds of Birmingham with her 11 year-old daughter.
