Gerron Jordan is an award-winning journalist who joined the NBC 33 team in October 2017 as co-anchor of the morning news.  You can watch him alongside Carly Laing and Meteorologist Kevan Smith Monday-Friday from 5:00- 7:00 a.m. 

Before joining NBC 33, Gerron worked as a general assignment reporter at KTVI/KPLR, the Fox and CW affiliate in St. Louis, Missouri.  While in St. Louis, Gerron covered everything from the 2016 Presidential Debate between Hilary Clinton and Donald Trump, to the historic World Series win by the Chicago Cubs.

While he’s new to NBC 33, Gerron is not new to Baton Rouge, having worked in both Baton Rouge and Lake Charles as a reporter and anchor for four years before moving to St. Louis.  During his first round in Louisiana, Gerron’s work was recognized by the Louisiana Associated Press, and the National Academy of Television Arts and Sciences- Suncoast Region.  Gerron’s reporting has earned him distinguished accolades including a first place award in breaking news and a story of the year award for an investigation that led to upgraded drunk driving charges for a federal judge.  

Gerron has also been nominated for a regional Emmy Award for his reporting on the Whitney Plantation in south Louisiana.  

A native of the great city of Chicago, Illinois, Gerron spent his college years in Washington, DC where he attended Howard University.  Gerron graduated, with honors, from Howard University in 2008 with a Bachelor of Arts degree in Journalism. 

When Gerron isn’t looking for his next great story to tell, he’s probably finding the next best place to brunch or perform karaoke.  He enjoys spending time with family and friends and looking for ways to give back to his community.  Gerron is a proud member of the National Association of Black Journalists.
