Dane Wurmlinger

Dane is thrilled to represent NewsChannel 9 as anchor of Good Morning Chattanooga each weekday morning!

Dane comes to the Southeast from Eugene, Oregon, where he started back in February of 2019.

He anchored, reported, and produced newscasts with Oregon’s FOX and KVAL/KMTR.

Before his adventure to Western Oregon, Dane was an anchor and reporter in Michigan’s Upper Peninsula at WBUP/WBKP.

Dane studied Media Production, Theatre, and Digital Cinema at Northern Michigan University in Marquette – the same city that gave him his start in broadcast television.

Dane was born and raised in Coeur d'Alene, Idaho. Growing up in his family’s bed and breakfast, he always enjoyed listening to stories of strangers that would soon become friends. After beginning to perform in community and professional theatre, Dane knew he was destined to tell stories, whether it was on a stage or in front of a camera.

Known for being extremely involved in every community setting, he is dedicated to bringing his viewers quality stories, information, and newscasts that matter to them every day.

In his spare time, you can often find Dane acting in local community theatre, exploring hiking trails, finding good craft beer, and in the winter months – skiing the slopes.
