Georgina McGuinness

Georgina McGuinness (nee Allen) is the long-time anchor of National Nine News Adelaide's weekend 6pm news bulletin, a position she has held since 1989.

An Adelaide native, Georgina studied at Seymour College and at the Magill campus of the South Australian College of Advanced Education (now a part of the University of South Australia). She graduated in 1987 and joined National Nine News as a reporter. Just a year later she was appointed weekend news anchor, which job she continues to this day, along with filing special reports. In 2002, she was the anchor of the short lived local version of A Current Affair.

After a number of years presenting as both Georgina Allen, and later Georgina Thomas, she married former Adelaide Crows captain Tony McGuinness in 1999. She is the mother of four children; Charlotte, Lucy, Arabella and Oscar and is an ambassador for the Adelaide Women's and Children's Hospital and often appears in their promotional campaigns.

Georgina also is the co-anchor of the annual Adelaide Christmas Pageant telecast which airs in early November each year.
