Teresa Tomeo

Bio

Teresa Tomeo is an author, syndicated Catholic talk show host, and motivational speaker with nearly 27 years of experience in broadcasting as a talk show host, radio and TV news woman, and newspaper columnist. You may remember Teresa from her days at Channel 7 and Channel 50 here in the Detroit area.

Teresa left the secular media in 2000 to start her own speaking and communications company. Teresa's daily morning program, 'Catholic Connection', is produced by Ave Maria Radio in Ann Arbor, Michigan and heard on over 120 Catholic stations through EWTN Global Catholic Radio, as well Sirius Satellite Radio.

Teresa is a columnist and special correspondent for the national Catholic newspaper, 'Our Sunday Visitor', as well as a writer for the Zenit Catholic News Agency. She has also appeared frequently on EWTN Catholic Television and has been featured on 'The O'Reilly Factor' and Fox News.

Recently Teresa was chosen as only one of 250 women from around the world to serve as a delegate at the Pontifical Council for the Laity's International Women's Congress held in Rome, marking the 20th Anniversary of John Paul the Second's Letter On the Dignity and Vocation of Women.

As a speaker Teresa travels around the country addressing the topic of media awareness and activism, as well as sharing her faith journey and providing concerned citizens with the tools needed to stand up against the immoral aspects of today's culture. Her book, 'Noise-How Our Media Saturated Culture Dominates Lives and Dismantles Families', was published last year by Ascension Press. 'Noise' is a Catholic best-seller and is now in its second printing.

Her second book, 'Newsflash! My Surprising Journey from Secular Anchor to Media Evangelist' is expected to be published later this year.

Teresa's talking points include:

Media Influence and Activism for Families
The Media and the Culture of Death
Today's Teens, Tweens, and The Media
