She has 23 years of experience as a radio talk show hostess. Marshall is presently broadcast by TalkUSA Radio across the United States.
Marshall began her media career as a radio news reporter in Boston, then moved to Miami, Florida, to work in radio and television. Marshall worked as a news reporter, traffic reporter, weather reporter, and disc jockey in Miami. She did a special “Remembrance” hour one night while hosting an overnight nostalgic music program, in which veterans called in to share their stories. Leslie was spotted by a program director at a talk station across town that night.
He called her and informed her that she may have missed her call. Marshall moved to talk radio after years of anchoring, reporting, and hosting music shows. She began her career in talk radio at WNWS in Miami, where she stayed for three years. Marshall went on to work middays at WGR in Buffalo, then at KPRC in Houston. Marshall took over the ABC Satellite Radio Network from Tom Snyder in 1992. Her show aired on over 200 stations across the country for three years.
Leslie proceeded to work for WLS-FM in Chicago, where she hosted an afternoon drive discussion show, after the network collapsed after three years. She went on to work for KGO radio in San Francisco and KHTK/Hot Talk in Sacramento, where she presented a midday show. She hosted “Bay Talk” on KRON-TV, the local NBC affiliate in the city by the bay, on television.
Marshall returned to Chicago two years later to work at WLS; she also co-hosted “Beyond the Beltway” on WGR-TV and stayed in Chicago for nearly two years. She subsequently moved to Los Angeles to be with her hubby. On weekends, she presented conversation shows on KFI, KLSX, and KABC radio stations, and at the station’s debut, she was finally signed to KLAC, KFI’s sister station. Leslie hosted early evening weeknights on KLAC for two years, during which time it remained a discussion station. Marshall aired her own show on WWKB in Buffalo, New York, a 50,000-watt powerhouse audible throughout the northeastern United States as well as the Greater Toronto and Hamilton Area, for a year after KLAC switched to music.
