As one of the most popular talk show hosts in radio history, Dr. Laura Schlessinger offers no-nonsense advice infused with a strong sense of ethics, accountability, and personal responsibility; she’s been doing it successfully for more than 30 years, reaching millions of listeners weekly. Her internationally syndicated radio program is now heard exclusively on Sirius/XM Radio’s Stars Channel 109, and is streamed on the Internet and podcast.
She’s a best-selling author of thirteen adult books and four children’s books, which range from the provocative (New York Times chart topper “The Proper Care and Feeding of Husbands”) to the poignant (children’s book title “Why Do You Love Me?”). Her support of children and family values is legendary, and she is, indeed, “her kid’s mom.” She writes a monthly column for NewsMax, a daily blog (DrLauraBlog.com), posts videos weekly on The Dr. Laura YouTube Channel (YouTube.com/DrLaura), she’s on Facebook (Facebook.com/DrLaura), Twitter (@drlauraprogram), Pinterest (pinterest.com/drlaura), and Instagram (www.instagram.com/dr.laura_schlessinger/), where she interacts daily with listeners. Most recently, she opened her own design boutique, DrLauraDesigns.com, where she displays and sells her jewelry and art glass creations.
Dr. Laura holds a Ph.D. in physiology from Columbia University’s College of Physicians and Surgeons, and received her post-doctoral certification in Marriage, Family, and Child Counseling from the University of Southern California. She was in private practice for 12 years. She’s also been on the faculty of the Department of Biology at the University of Southern California, and the Graduate Psychology Department at Pepperdine University.
She has received an award from the Office of the Secretary of Defense for her Exceptional Public Service, and among her numerous other honors, has been the first and only woman ever to win the National Association of Broadcasters’ prestigious Marconi Award for Network/Syndicated Personality.
In addition, Dr. Laura holds multiple trophies for sailboat racing, and is a Black Belt in martial arts. She has personally raised more than $3 million for Operation Family Fund, which provides financial assistance to families of military personnel severely injured or killed in Iraq and Afghanistan. Her son Deryk, is a U.S. Army veteran who served in Afghanistan.
