Fox 56 Morning Edition co-anchor Bill Bryant grew up in Williamsburg, Kentucky.

Bill and some classmates started a newspaper and sold it on the streets when they were in the 5th and 6th grades. By the time he was 14, he started hanging out at the local radio station, where he was allowed to read announcements and pull wire copy for newscasts. When he was 15, he was given a regular shift on WEZJ radio, playing country music and doing local news. A year later, the managers started a cable TV station, and Bryant produced and anchored the news while also playing basketball and serving as class president.

He attended what is now the University of the Cumberland's and continued working in radio and TV and then transferred to Eastern Kentucky University where he earned a degree in broadcasting and political science.

The summer before his senior year at EKU, Bryant did an internship with WKYT in Lexington. He was supposed to be there just for the summer, but has remained there for more than 25 years. Bryant has anchored every show at WKYT at one time or another, as well as the long-running "Kentucky Newsmakers" program. In the fall of 2009, he added to his duties by becoming the co-anchor of the FOX 56 Morning Edition.

Bryant is a member of EKU's "Hall of Distinguished Alumni" and the Williamsburg High School "Hall of Fame." He's also been recognized by The Associated Press and is proud to have been a part of newscasts honored with Emmy and Communicator Awards.

He is active helping Kentucky Children's Hospital raise money and in recent years helped spearhead an effort to build a downtown community park in his hometown.

For fun, Bryant likes to work out, go boating and read. He especially likes to read about Kentucky history and the national political scene.

Fox 56 Sports anchor Brian Milam was born and raised in Louisville and attended Butler High School.

While at Butler, he played baseball and football, helping the lead the Baseball Bears to the 1992 region title. He attended Morehead State University on a baseball scholarship, setting several school records for most hits and most at-bats in a career. The team won the 1993 OVC Baseball Championship.

Brian went to MSU hoping to become a high school history teacher and baseball coach, but got involved in the TV program and has worked in a newsroom ever since.

His first job after college was at WYMT-TV in Hazard, Kentucky, where he stayed for 12 years as a news anchor, sports anchor and, eventually, sports director. "I love eastern Kentucky a great deal and the people at WYMT and in the mountains helped mold me into the person I am today," he says.

Brian loves doing play-by-play. "I have been behind the microphone for Morehead State football and basketball games, high school sports of every kind, but the biggest thrill I received came from the KHSAA. From 2006-2008, I did the television play-by-play for all 16 state football finals!"

Brian became the primary sports anchor for FOX 56 in late 2011 and also reports for WKYT-TV. His nightly "Fox 56 Sports Extra" is the most comprehensive sports segment on Lexington television.

Chief Meteorologist Chris Bailey returned to Lexington in March 2012 after working three years at a TV station in Huntington, West Virginia. He first worked at Lexington's WKYT from 1997 to 2008 and was the first co-host of the FOX 56 Morning Edition in 2007-08. He's now seen weeknights on the FOX 56 Ten O'clock News.

Born and raised in Salyersville, Bailey started at WKYT in 1997 as an intern while still a student at Morehead State University. After earning his bachelor’s degree, Bailey became a full-time associate producer, helping do everything from writing news stories to printing and sorting scripts for anchors.

But Bailey’s passion was always weather.

“It was one of those situations you read about but never think will happen to you,” Bailey said about how he received his big break. “WKYT had an opening for a meteorologist and asked me to make a tape of myself doing a weather segment. They watched the tape, and I was hired the next day to do weekend weather.”

Bailey also graduated from the meteorology program at Mississippi State University. He is a member of the National Weather Association and the American Meteorological Society.

Bailey started his broadcasting career at a young age. While in the fifth grade, a flood hit his hometown of Salyersville and he did a live phone report describing the conditions.

“Weather has been in my blood since I was a kid,” Bailey said. “I got the opportunity to become a weather watcher for my old friend, Brian Collins, and which really set me on the path I’m on today.”

Bailey is an avid University of Kentucky Wildcat fan. When he's not on air doing the weather, you’ll likely find him at his computer updating his blog (kyweathercenter.com).

Bailey and his wife Scarlett have a nine-year-old daughter.

Meteorologist Micah Harris joined the Fox 56 Morning Edition in October, 2012 after working for a television station in Montgomery, Alabama. Harris grew up in a small town just outside of Birmingham and says he learned to appreciate how quickly weather can change by experiencing just about every condition in Alabama.

“April 27, 2011 is a day that a lot of us can remember no matter where you live,” Harris says about the day a record 62 tornadoes hit the state.

“It was definitely surreal and puts a knot in my stomach every time I think about it," says Harris.

“Now that I am in this beautiful city called Lexington, I can already feel a difference in the air,” says Harris. “My wife and I are extremely excited to call Lexington our new home." He says he looks forward to covering big snowfalls, something he didn't see much of while working in the south.

Before working in Montgomery, Harris was a meteorologist at KTEN in Denison, Texas. He studied meteorology at Mississippi State University.

Harris says he is often gets asked what is the best part about his job. “Meeting people is always my answer,” he says. “I really enjoy meeting and speaking to people, so if you ever see me around please come up and say hello."
