Amy George was a co-anchor for WHNT, a CBS affiliate in Huntsville, Alabama.
She is a native of the Tennessee Valley. She grew up in nearby Muscle Shoals and graduated from the University of Alabama with a Bachelor of Art degree in Telecommunication and Film.

She worked as a General Assignment Reporter at WMBB in Panama City, Florida after her graduation. She covered one of the biggest stories of my career, Hurricane Opal after just six weeks on the job.

She joined WHNT in December 1996. She covered an array of stories from the 1998 bombing of a Birmingham abortion clinic that killed a police officer to the election campaign and 2003 inauguration of Alabama Governor Bob Riley. She received the Television Excellence in Religion Reporting award from the Religion Newswriters Association.

She served on the Board of Directors of Hospice Family Care and co-host the Muscular Dystrophy Telethon every Labor Day.

On February 22, she announced that she was leaving WHNT to join Huntsville Hospital Foundation to help build the Melissa George Neonatal Memorial Fund, named in memory of one of her twin daughters who died at birth in 2005. On February 28, she said her final goodbye.
