  • Donald Gilbert "Don" Shelby (born 1947) is a news anchor on WCCO-TV in Minneapolis, Minnesota. He joined the station as a news anchor in 1978 and is also an experienced investigative journalist, whose work has earned two George Foster Peabody awards and several Emmy Awards. Shelby suffered a mild stroke in early 2004, and returned to news reading duties by the end of that year. In recent years, Shelby began having a unique dual responsibility of hosting an afternoon radio show on WCCO (AM) which ends at 6:00, immediately after which he anchored the TV newscast, which is also simulcast on radio. In June 2009, Monday Night Football sideline reporter Michele Tafoya took over the radio show, which Shelby still appears on daily. His current project, titled Project Energy, has been widely credited with enlarging the dialogue about alternative fuels and energy conservation. His eldest daughter, Ashley Shelby, is the author of Red River Rising: The Anatomy of a Flood and the Survival of an American City.
