Marketplace reporter

Janet Babin

Janet originated the Innovations Desk for Marketplace www.marketplace.org from American Public Media back in 2005. She covered the intersection of science, business and amazing. After a brief stint as a producer and guest host of The Story, Marketplace asked Janet to return as a reporter. Her reports are heard by more than 10 million listeners each week. Janet's career began at a suburban Philadelphia newspaper, The Times Herald. She also worked in commercial radio and television. No matter what else she does, she wants to be remembered for saving 5 kittens, 2 puppies, several cats and a skunk. And for rehabilitating 1 irascible dog.
