One of the busiest, brightest and most beautiful young ladies in radio, she airs her stimulating Dorese Bell Show twice a day on Tuesdays and Thursdays over ABC. The rest of her time is spent gathering the wealth of news and information she presents, interviewing celebrities, and covering any and all the events of interest to women. "My work keeps me busy almost 24 hours a day, seven days a week," says Dorese, adding enthusiastically, "but I love it. It is my life, my love — everything." . . . Dorese was born in Birmingham, Alabama, and was graduated with honors from Arlington Hall College in Virginia. Then she studied for two years at the American Academy of Dramatic Arts.

Since there were ho dramatic openings there, Dorese decided to try something different. "One night," she explains, "I shot up in bed and said to myself, 'That's it — radio!' " The next day she visited one of Rochester's stations, and talked officials into hiring her. The result — she became Women's Editor and Radio Commentator at Station WRNY, and later was femcee, writer and producer of the WHAM-TV show, Hi Neighbor.

Party. However, she discovered her true niche when she was given her present-type show. . . . Since January, Dorese has been broadcasting from New York, but weekends she commutes to Washington to visit her folks. Because she has been such a girl-on-the-go, Dorese hasn't had time to "collect" hobbies — except for her beloved little Cairn terrier, "Tiger." And, in spite of her hectic pace, Dorese says, "I've never been sick a day in my life. I get my sleep on trains, planes and buses. I even take a three-minute nap in the studio, just before air time." As to the future, Dorese looks forward to even more work, and hopes to have her show on TV as well as radio. When this occurs, folks across the land will have the pleasure of seeing as well as hearing this delightful, talented young lady.
