Anne Makovec

Anne Makovec anchors "The Afternoon Edition" on KPIX and updates local and breaking news streaming on CBS News Bay Area all day long. 

She's been with KPIX since 2010, reporting on the front lines of wildfires and earthquakes and covering landmark court rulings that changed history.

Makovec has been covering Northern California news since 2004 in the Monterey Bay, Sacramento, and San Francisco Bay Area. She started her career at her hometown radio station in Wisconsin before she was even finished with high school and hasn't stopped chasing news since.

Makovec has spent much of her journalism career covering politics and breaking news, but always loves to hear about good news in our communities. Please reach out if you have a tip.

In her free time, she volunteers with several local organizations including the Boys and Girls Club of Oakland, Muttville Senior Pet Rescue, and Glide Memorial Homeless Services in San Francisco.

Makovec lives in downtown San Francisco with her former shelter pets: Sandy, Winston and Daniel.
