Amanda Taylor - News9.com - Oklahoma City, OK - News, Weather, Video and Sports |

Amanda Taylor can be seen weekdays co-anchoring the 5, 6, and 10 p.m. news and going to bat for Oklahoma consumers.

Taylor has given Oklahomans a place to turn should they need a little help, and it is her fair and caring nature that nets results. Since joining the News 9 team, Taylor has won multiple awards for her work as our Consumer Watch reporter. These include a number of Emmy's, Association of Broadcaster's awards, Associated Press honors, and Society of Professional Journalist awards.  However, she is most proud of a picture that hangs on her wall. It is a courtroom sketch of Taylor taking the stand in a federal fraud case.  It was her story and testimony that helped put a con-man behind bars. 

Taylor graduated from the University of Florida but grew up a "Hoosier" in Bloomington, Indiana. She joined the News 9 team in 2006 after leaving KENS in San Antonio, Texas. Prior to her work in San Antonio, Taylor also reported and anchored for KAUZ in Wichita Falls, Texas and WUFT in Gainesville, Florida. 

When you don't see Amanda on television, you may be able to catch her with her husband Nick, playing with their two Wheaten Terriers, named William and Sonoma. If you couldn't tell by the dogs' names, she also enjoys cooking and makes a mean grilled salmon. One of her first stops when she moved to Oklahoma was Eischen's – and it's still one of her favorite places to eat. Amanda also enjoys gardening and playing the piano.
