Daniela Lager is the new head of "Personal
In the fall of 2016, Daniela Lager joined the radio talk show «Persönlich» as a host. The 52-year-old from Zurich is taking over for Anita Richner and will co-host the talk show with Sonja Hasler, Dani Fohrler, and Christian Zeugin.
Daniela Lager has been a presenter for radio and television since 1985. She began her career at Radio Munot, then moved to New York, where she completed an internship at TV station WPIX and worked as a freelance correspondent for Swiss local radio stations. Back in Zurich, she moved to Radio Z and later worked for TeleZüri as well as the Swiss window of RTL/ProSieben. She has been working for Swiss radio and television since 2000. At first, Daniela Lager was a presenter and editor at the "Tagesschau", and for the past 13 years she has hosted the news magazine "10vor10".
Now Daniela Lager joins the radio talk show "Persönlich" as head of talks, alternating with Sonja Hasler, Dani Fohrler and Christian Zeugin. She succeeds Anita Richner, who already took over as editorial director of the talk show "Focus" on Radio SRF 3 at the beginning of June. Lager will host her first show on Sunday, October 2, 2016.
Daniela Lager will continue to work for "10vor10" as an editor and reporter: "I look forward to talking to people who shape our country, on both a small and a large scale. The fact that I no longer have to keep an eye on the clock and that we have a whole hour to talk to each other is great - and a challenge at the same time."
Heidi Ungerer, journalistic director of Radio SRF 1: "With Daniela Lager, "Persönlich" not only gets an experienced interviewer, but also a creative personality who will put her very own stamp on the show."
