Edith Bowman | Speaker Biography

Renowned Scottish radio DJ and television presenter
First solo female breakfast show host on commercial radio
Host of popular podcast "Soundtracking" featuring filmmakers

Edith Eleanor Bowman is a prominent Scottish radio DJ, television presenter, and podcaster. She began her broadcasting career in the early 2000s with BBC Radio 1, co-hosting the weekday afternoon show "Colin and Edith" alongside Colin Murray. Her engaging style quickly gained popularity among listeners. She also hosted the weekend breakfast show and "The Radio 1 Review," establishing herself as a knowledgeable presenter in music and entertainment.

Bowman has made significant contributions to television, hosting BBC Scotland's coverage of the Live 8 event in 2005 and co-presenting major music festivals like T in the Park and Glastonbury. These high-profile events enhanced her reputation in the industry.

After leaving BBC Radio 1 in 2014, Bowman became the first solo female breakfast show host on commercial radio with the launch of Virgin Radio UK in 2016, remaining with the station until 2017. She brought her warmth and insight to a new audience during this time.

Her television career expanded as she presented various music and film-related shows for Channel 4, including "Evo Music Rooms" and "The Vue Film Show." She continued to cover major music events like the Electric Proms and Live Earth, bridging the gap between radio and television.

In podcasting, Bowman has found success with "Soundtracking," a weekly podcast where she interviews filmmakers about their musical influences. Launched in 2016, it has been well-received and further solidified her position in the entertainment industry.

Bowman is also active in charity work, supporting the Fashion Targets Breast Cancer campaign and hosting the Young Scot Awards from 2015 to 2017. 

In her personal life, she is married to Tom Smith, lead singer of the band Editors, and they have two sons. Throughout her career, Bowman has shown a passion for music, entertainment, and community, making her a beloved figure in the UK media landscape.
