Grace Ke joined Global BC in 2006.
A Vancouver native, she began her journalism career in 1996 as the weekend anchor at KRTV in Great Falls, Montana. Just two days into her career, the FBI arrested one of its most wanted men just a few miles away – The Unabomber.
Grace continued her career at KIVI in Boise, Idaho where she was honoured by the Idaho Press Club for her investigative reporting, and then joined KXLY in Spokane, and KING TV in Seattle before returning home to Vancouver.
She has covered major stories such the Spokane Serial Killer, the Seattle earthquake in 2001, and the impact of the September 11 terrorist attacks.
When she is not working, Grace, her husband and their twin boys enjoy hitting the ski slopes and travelling whenever they can.
