Morgan Black
Community Reporter
As Global Edmonton’s Community Reporter, Morgan Black finds the stories that live at the heart of the place you call home.
Morgan hopes her stories introduce you to a side of Edmonton you may not have seen before… or help you fall in love with your city all over again.
Before joining the Global Edmonton team, Morgan worked as the producer of the Ryan Jespersen Show on 630 CHED, as well as the features reporter for Global News Radio 880 Edmonton.
In 2019, she was honoured with a national RTDNA award — judged the best in Canada — for her large-market feature piece “A Love Story Worth Listening To.” The story caught the attention of actor John Krasinksi (The Office, A Quiet Place), who, after he listened to it, tweeted “This was beautiful…wowzers!”
Morgan is a graduate of NAIT’s Television and Radio Broadcasting program and also holds a Bachelor of Communications Studies from MacEwan University.
Outside of work, Morgan volunteers as a tutor for junior high students and sits on a Poetry Pathways board that works to bring local art from students and residents to her neighbourhood. She also coaches figure skating and is somewhere between the skill level of an Olympian and Chazz Michael Michaels.
