Education
Browne earned a Masters Degree (GPA 4.0) in Communication Arts from the New York Institute of Technology in Old Westbury, New York. She attended on a full scholarship (teacher assistantship), which involved teaching news-writing and production skills to undergraduates. She was also a general assignment reporter for NYIT’s award-winning news program LI News Tonight, which airs nightly on Long Island cable.
Browne has a Bachelors Degree in Communications from Fordham University in New York City. Many New Yorkers remember her from her college days, when she co-hosted a popular Irish music program on Fordham's far-reaching radio station WFUV-FM (90.7FM). She was also news anchor and News Director of that 50,000-watt station.
In addition, Browne was editor of Fordham’s literary magazine "Alternative Motifs". While at Fordham, Browne worked for Newsweek Magazine part-time for four years, and was an intern for Joan Lunden’s syndicated weekly television show on parenting called “Mother’s Day” (later "Every Day").
