[UPDATE: She had her baby in September and all went well]

Coleman has worked at WSB since 2009. She currently anchors the 4 p.m. news program with Bachman.

"Halfway through," she emailed me. "Can't wait to be out reporting on those 90 plus days come June and July :)."

A Philadelphia native and current Cobb County resident, Coleman worked in Arkansas and North Carolina before coming to Atlanta.
