Tracy Perlman

Tracy Perlman joined the WCCO team in April 2009. As a producer on the WCCO morning show, she helps select, develop and write the stories you see each and every morning.

Tracy grew up Mendota Heights and graduated from Henry Sibley High School. That’s when Tracy got her first taste of what it was like to be a journalist through a mentorship with Darcy Pohland.

While attending the University of Kansas (Rock Chalk Jayhawk!), Tracy received a Society of Professional Journalists award for online sports reporting, and two first-place awards from the Kansas Association of Broadcasters for her newscasts. After graduation, she worked in Kansas City.

Sports have always been a big part of Tracy’s life. She started dance classes at age two and was on her first T-ball team at age five. She can’t remember when she attended her first Twins game, but regardless of their record, Twins games are on the agenda every summer.
