Annie Feidt started her journalism career in 1997 at CNN Headline News, where she mastered the art of the teleprompter and learned to whittle down complex stories to 100 words or less. A yearning to tackle more in-depth reporting convinced her to accept a job at Minnesota Public Radio, where she produced the regional edition of All Things Considered for five years. She left Minnesota in 2003 to follow winter around the world. When she returned, she wanted to get back into radio but wasn’t ready to give up the cold weather and easy access to adventure, so she joined the staff of the Alaska Public Radio Network in 2004.

At APRN, Feidt produces the evening news program, Alaska News Nightly, and works as a general assignment reporter (with a self-assigned focus in science). Her science reporting in Alaska has included hanging out in the middle of a fur seal colony in the Pribilof Islands, cruising on an ice breaker in the Bering Sea, and tagging along with biologists studying polar bears on broken ice floes in the Chukchi Sea.
