Jamie Shupak Stelter Biography – Jamie Shupak Stelter Wiki
Jamie Shupak Stelter is an Emmy-nominated journalist working as an on-air traffic anchor for NY1 News in New York City. After graduating, she got her first traffic reporting position for News 12 Westchester, where she worked her way up to the reporter and producer role. She departed from the station in 2008 and worked as a traffic reporter for other news outlets including WTXF-FOX 29 and WNBC.
In 2010, she started working at NY1 News and became a “local cult favorite” according to the New York Post. Speaking about her early schedule working the morning news Jamie admitted, “I love the idea of waking people up in the morning. I never really want a 9-to-5 job.”She also started writing a dating column for Complex magazine sharing her experiences dating in the Big Apple. Then in 2013, she published a novel, Transit Girl, somehow based on her life as she coped with her cheating ex-fiancé, her dream job as a transit reporter, and dating in Manhattan.
“It was the most difficult thing. I’m single for the first time in my adult life, and that’s why I’m really open to everything,” she told the New York Post in 2011. She continued: “I’ve been lucky. I get that a lot of people are jaded and really negative about dating, but it is so new and fun for me. I think it is about your attitude, and I’m not in any big rush.”
She studied and graduated from the University of Maryland in 2003.
