Gina Tempesta, Neighbor

Gina spent her early years growing up in Pembroke, MA. When she was 16-years-old, her father got a contract with Raytheon and was transferred to Saudi Arabia. During that time, Gina went to high school in Rome, Italy; spending summers traveling around Europe and working in Riyadh for the Army Corps of Engineers. She came back stateside to go to Emerson College, where she studied Theater Arts and Radio. Gina has been working in Boston radio pretty much ever since, both as a news anchor and traffic reporter. She has lived in Melrose for the past 15 years and has three children, ages 22, 19 and 14. Gina is also in the process of writing a children's book about The Big Dig and developing a number of treatments for possible television production.
