Suzanne Jusst
Suzanne was born in Everett, Washington and moved to Southern Idaho in her early teens.  She graduated with honors from Camas County High School in Fairfield where she also worked as a reporter, assistant editor and editor of the Camas County news paper, The Snowshoe.   While still in high school she had some of her writings published in Seventeen magazine.  She received scholarships to attend college at Boise State University in Boise, Idaho where she also began her career as a professional musician, singer and songwriter.  Suzanne has been in the entertainment business for most of her life.  Starting out as a folksinger touring around the country playing in pubs and coffeehouses, she eventually made the move to Nashville to write songs for the recording industry.  She’s had many songs published—but is still anticipating her first major “cut” on a successful recording artist to give her that first big break! She has two professional recordings of her own under her belt One Mile High and Another Planet which feature her original songs.  She returned to Southern Idaho from Nashville in 1996 with her two daughters Caitlin and Beth.  Because she has fully recovered from a life-threatening eating disorder, she travels to schools and civic organizations to share her story and play her music in hopes of helping others.  She is currently working on a book she intends to donate to schools so more young women and men can learn how to overcome eating disorders and other addictions.  Suzanne began working at Newsradio 1310 KLIX in the Spring of 1998 and is now News Director and co-host of Idaho Today.   For Suzanne's personal home page, click here.
