Maria Durant

Maria Durant, a former anchor and news personality at ABC6/FOX28, where she served for 26 years, has been appointed the new Director of Public Information at the Franklin County Sheriff's Office. Maria is a six-time Award-winning journalist. In addition, she has received numerous Associated Press Awards.

A graduate of The Ohio State University with a degree in Broadcast journalism and Political Science, little did Maria know she would someday become a news story herself. In October 2006, Maria was diagnosed with Breast Cancer. Instead of hiding her diagnosis, Maria decided to share her story in hopes of helping others.

Maria is involved with several cancer organizations, and as a Filipino, she especially wants young Asian American Women to know that getting diagnosed with cancer can happen to them, but that early detection is critical.

Maria is also involved with many other community organizations such as the Asian Festival, the Columbus International Program, the National Kidney Foundation, and At The Table.

Maria is married. The couple has a son named Donovan. He is a student at Boston College.
