NEW YORK (WABC) -- Diana Williams, award-winning reporter and anchor for WABC-TV's top-rated Eyewitness News at 5:00, has announced that she is retiring after 29 years here at WABC-TV.
Diana joined the Eyewitness News Team in 1991. Before that, she worked at WNEV-TV in Boston and started her career at WBTV-TV in Charlotte, North Carolina - a career spanning 40 years in broadcasting.
"I joined Eyewitness news as a reporter and wound up on the anchor desk with the late, great Bill Buetel. I've covered stories from around the world and interviewed fascinating people. I work daily with smart and engaging people who are passionate about journalism and getting it right... and I do it alongside my dear 5 o'clock teammates, Sade and Lee," she wrote on Facebook.
Diana and her family have gone through some difficult events over the last 5 years, which she says changed her perspective on things.
