- Biography:
- Mary Loos is a long time member of the Broadcast Film Critics Association (2000), but she started doing reviews for her hometown newspaper back in her teens. Since then Mary has bounced around from print to radio to TV. Her reviews have appeared on KBCI in Boise, Idaho; WBIR in Knoxville, Tennessee and NorthWest Cable News in Seattle, WA. Additionally Mary has done countless celebrity interviews with everyone from Sir Anthony Hopkins to Josh Brolin. Now based in Portland, Oregon, she joined AM 1190 KEX's "Morning Update" in March of 2008. Mary prides herself on not only reviewing films for the station, but co-anchoring the morning news, and covering other aspects of the entertainment world. Her most recent focus is on Northwest natives making a name for themselves in Hollywood. She's recently covered the work of director Martin Hynes ("The Go-Getter") and writer Alex Buono ("Bigger, Stronger, Faster*"). Mary continues to be excited about film and the world of entertainment. When she's not at the movies, she enjoys sampling Oregon wine, sleeping (it's a 3:30AM daily wake up call!), and enjoying life in the Rose City with her husband Jack, and dogs Willis (Whachoo talkin' 'bout?) and Lucy (You've got some 'splainin' to do!).
