Dodge Landesman – Anchor / Producer

Dodge Landesman is a morning anchor and producer for NBC 11 and Fox 9 who joined in November 2022.

Dodge is excited to be in Yuma and wanted to land here for many reasons!

Originally from New York City, Dodge has traveled all across the continent for fun, visiting 48 states in the USA, 6 provinces in Canada and 27 states in Mexico.

Dodge says Yuma is the continental crossroads of the world, sitting right on the border of Mexico with a healthy number of Canadian snowbirds. A fitting city for a person with a deep love of all three nations.

You may see him around with his beat up convertible blasting Luis Miguel or Hank Williams. He's an old soul at heart and can name you every top 20 hit from 1947-'64. You may also see his dog, Name (because Hu's on first), a stray Dodge found while walking around Ciudad Jimenez, Chihuahua.

Dodge is looking for recs in Yuma as well as Mexicali, as he lives south of the border there on most weekends, so dont hesitate to drop a line.

Previously, Dodge interned for KVIA in El Paso, and was a reporter and weekend anchor out in Casper, WY, Salisbury, MD and most recently for CBS7 in Midland, TX.

In another life he also made a longshot run for city council in NYC at the age of eighteen and was on a reality show with Ice-T at fifteen, where he tried and failed miserably to learn how to rap.

It's been an interesting ride, and he's excited to have Yuma as his newest copilot.
