Whatever happened to Lynn Russell? Well here is what wiki has to say.
After CNN
In 2005, Russell accompanied her then-husband, who had recovered from his illness, to Toronto, Canada, where she focused on writing, but kept her hand in the media. From 2006 to 2008, she was an anchor on Canadian Broadcasting Corporation television network CBC Newsworld. From 2008 to 2010, she hosted a radio program on Toronto station Newstalk 1010. She also acquired an Ontario real estate license and traded in real estate with a brokerage there.[citation needed]
She currently divides her time among Washington, DC, Toronto and Atlanta.
I occasionally listened to her radio show here and her over the air voice is quite compelling as well. :)
oh also found this on wiki
Other[edit]
1993 to present: Private Detective in the State of Georgia.[citation needed] She maintains a strict level of privacy for her clients. When her favorite interviewer, the legendary Tom Snyder, asked her to appear on the final week of his program, The Late, Late Show on CBS, to discuss some of her most celebrated cases, she declined because of privacy concerns, and was[who?] bitterly disappointed.
1996 to 2005: Deputy Sheriff in Fulton County, Georgia, Reserve Division.[citation needed] Besides Jail Officer, her duties included traffic, appropriations, communications and courthouse security during the trial of former Black Panther H. Rap Brown (Jamil Abdullah Al-Amin), now serving a life sentence for the murder of a Fulton County deputy.
From 2010: Storyteller In Residence at Centennial College School of Journalism, in Toronto.[citation needed] Her students are Centennial College undergraduates, as well as University of Toronto post-graduate sports journalism students.
Russell has two black belts in the Korean-American martial art of Choi Kwang Do.[citation needed] She is certified as an open water SCUBA diver (NAUI), and keelboat sailor.[citation needed]
She creates very high-end, one-of-a-kind Italian silk lampshades, and markets them through Benevento Lampshade Company.[citation needed]
Russell retains her passion for red lipstick, although she was prevailed upon by Turner Security to cease wearing it on CNN, after some male viewers thought she was sending them messages with the color.[citation needed] She sells her version of red lipstick, Lynne Russell Red, as well as other favorites on www.lynnerussell.com
If Laurie Due is eye candy, Lynne Russell was a banana split with nuts, whipped cream and a cherry on top. She was “womanly”.
Good post! :)
