Christine Westermann (born 2 December 1948 in Erfurt) is a German television and radio host, journalist and author.

Radio and television career

Westermann grew up in Mannheim. After finishing her Abitur she did an editorial traineeship at Шаблон:Interlanguage link multi and attended the Deutsche Journalistenschule (German Journalism School) in Munich. Starting in 1972, she worked as a freelance journalist for several radio and TV stations, produced films and reports and moderated the Шаблон:Interlanguage link multi on ZDF. In 1983 she switched to WDR and moderated the Шаблон:Interlanguage link multi until 2002, from 1987 on together with Frank Plasberg.

Since 1996 Westermann has been moderating the show Шаблон:Interlanguage link multi together with Götz Alsmann, in which an alternating famous "roommate" will be challenged with unusual tasks and games. Westermann and Alsmann called the format a "children's birthday party for celebrities". For their work with Zimmer frei! the duo has been awarded with the Adolf-Grimme-Preis in 2000.

Westermann also works as a host for the German radio station WDR 2, where she presents – rotating with her colleagues – the Montalk (Monday talk) and on Sundays the Buchtipp (Book tip). In 2010 she was awarded with the German Radio prize (Шаблон:Interlanguage link multi) in the category Best Interview.

One year later her second book I think he dropped (me). Stories out of the real life (German: Ich glaube, er hat Schluss gemacht. Geschichten aus dem richtigen Leben) followed. In collaboration with Шаблон:Interlanguage link multi she published the 2008 book Invitation for dance – a twosome story (German: Aufforderung zum Tanz – Eine Zweiergeschichte), a correspondence between two journalists.

Personal life

Between 1990 and 2000 Westermann had a secondary residence in San Francisco, where she worked as a freelance correspondent.
