Jean Enersen Retiring

I have known that Jean Enersen has that Jean Enersen as had a long career as co-anchor of the KING 5 News, I did not know that she was the first local female news anchor in the country.   Enersen began co-anchoring at the Seattle station 42 years ago.  Today, it is hard to imagine a local news report anywhere that does not have a female co-anchor.  What is even more amazing, is that Enersen has continued to co-anchor at that same station until this week, as she has just announced that she will retire from her anchoring duties.  
Enersen, who has been at KING 5 TV since 1968 originally as a reporter, will continue to do specials and Healthlink reports.
