She attended the independent the Mount School on ''Dalton Terrace'' (A59) in York. She studied Zoology at the University of Bristol. Walker hosted ''Good Morning Britain'' for TV-am for a short spell before joining Yorkshire Television. She co-presented Yorkshire Television's 'Calendar' regional news magazine programme until 1989. Despite having lived in London for many years, Walker is a staunch Sheffield United football fan, and has been a ''"Blade"'' since the age of 10. She was introduced to the team by her father who was a regular at Bramall Lane as were his son and two daughters.〔(Sheffield's Anna Walker ) (accessed 14 March 2007)〕 Walker left Yorkshire Television to front sports output for British Satellite Broadcasting. When British Sky Broadcasting took over the company, many of its staff were made redundant and Walker undertook freelance sports reporting duties for BBC television nationally, working on several events including the winter and summer Olympics of 1992. She soon moved to British Sky Broadcasting as a sports presenter.〔(The TV Room+ ) (accessed 14 March 2007)〕 In 2005, she appeared in the third series of the Channel 4 reality tv show, The Games, where, as the oldest competitor, she finished 4th with particularly good performances in gymnastics and trampolining and good showings throughout often just missing out on gold and silver placings by fractions.〔(The Games returns to Sheffield ) (accessed 14 March 2007)〕 She married the businessman (Hugh) Will Herrington in September 1995 in Haywards Heath. She has three children, Sean (born September 2001), and twins India and Amber (born February 2004). Walker was also the maid of honour at the wedding of Catherine Zeta-Jones and Michael Douglas. ==References and notes== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Anna Walker (television presenter)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
