Introduction :

Mary Bubala is a Baltimore-based American news reporter and anchor who currently works for WBFF-TV as an Evening News Anchor. Prior to that, she had worked for over 15 years at WJZ-TV.

Personal Life, Parents and Family Details :

  • Mary Bubala (married Smith) was born in September 1969 in Illinois, to parents Paul and Carol.

  • The couple met in Rochester, New York, where Mary was working at the time.
  • They now have two sons, Matt and Nate, and also a dog named Copper.

Early Life and Education :

  • At just ten years old, Mary knew she wanted to work in broadcasting when her parents bought her a tape recorder for Christmas. She would follow her family around and make them pretend they were famous people so she could interview them.
  • As a sophomore at Glenbrook South High School in Glenview, Illinois, Mary began formally training for the news world when she became a member of the Glenbrook South Television (GBS-TV) media group.
  • In a video from 1985, Mary explains how her time at the studio taught her radio production, how to speak fluently, and how to cue up music.
  • After high school, Mary moved to New York to attend Ithaca College. She graduated in 1991 with a Bachelor of Science in Broadcast Journalism.

Career, Job, Salary and Net Worth :

  • The day after graduating from college, Mary got a job with WENY-TV as a weekday news anchor and weekend reporter.
  • While still in New York, she later worked at WBNG-TV and WORK-TV.
  • She then moved a state over to Pennsylvania, where she worked as an anchor and reporter for WHTM-TV.
  • After a few years in Pennsylvania, Mary again moved states in 1997 — this time to Baltimore, Maryland, — where she spent four years at WMAR-TV. She began with the network as a General Assignment Reporter but was soon given anchor duties as well.
  • Mary joined WJZ-TV in December 2003 and worked there for well over a decade until September 2019. At WJZ-TV, she anchored the coveted 5 p.m. and 11 p.m. newscasts.
  • In September 2019, she started as the Evening News Anchor for WBFF-TV.

  • In 2018, she was honored by the Maryland Daily Record as an “Influential Marylander.”
  • While still in New York, she won “Best Series” for her work covering the conditions in Port-au-Prince, Haiti, and the local doctors who were trying to improve the city’s health care.

Fun Facts, Height and Trivia :

  • Growing up with cats, Copper is the first dog Mary has ever owned (and she is hooked!). She came to adopt the hound mix after Copper was featured on a weekly adoption segment at WJZ-TV, put on by the SPCA.
  • Like her husband, Mary’s father was also a doctor. He had volunteered at a free clinic prior to his death.
  • When she is not reporting or anchoring, Mary enjoys activities like running, golfing and tennis.
