Beverly Kirk, 39

Job: Anchor on NewsChannel 8. Education: BA in history and broadcasting from Western Kentucky University; masters in international politics from the University of Kentucky. Hometown: Burkesville, Kentucky. Now lives in Arlington. Dream date: One that’s filled with great conversation, humor, and company and leaves me looking forward to the next date. Coolest thing you’ve ever done: Riding in the cockpit of a C-130 and getting to remain there while landing in Barbados. The pilot’s-eye view as we approached the island was awesome. Hobbies: Reading—I collect books—and traveling, tennis, and pilates. Last book you read: Rabbit-Proof Fence by Doris Pilkington. How would you spend a lazy Sunday? I love exercising my mind, body, and spirit during long walks along the Potomac. I’m also a sports fan, so I like attending Redskins or Wizards games. Favorite date spot: Wolf Trap. Are you ready to settle down? Settle? Who wants to settle?
