Early Life

Born in 1974 in Vancouver, Canada, Marsden was raised in the birthplace of political talk-radio, where she also holds several major records in competitive swimming from her days as a national level competitor. The fully bilingual former print and runway model was schooled almost exclusively in French until high school. She graduated with a Bachelor of Science degree from Simon Fraser University before pursuing graduate studies in law and criminology, a journalism degree at the British Columbia Institute of Technology, and then political journalism at the National Journalism Center in Washington, DC. For her academic efforts, she was awarded the Canadian Governor General’s medal for academic excellence.

Career

After working as a producer, anchor, camerawoman, and reporter for a cable news outlet in her hometown, and as a videographer for Rugby Canada and BC Rugby, her first major media position was with ABC News20/20 in New York City, where she apprenticed under Connie Chung. Marsden worked in DC as a Director of a conservative think-tank that was a key component of President George W. Bush’s beltway coalition during the lead-up to the Iraq War.
