Marilyn Denis (born July 1, 1958) is a Canadian television and radio personality. Denis is the host of the The Marilyn Denis Show and co-host of CHUM-FM's Roger and Marilyn.
Born in Edmonton, Alberta, she grew up in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania and received a bachelor's degree in radio, television and advertising from the University of Idaho.
She began her broadcasting career at a local radio station in Moscow, Idaho, and later moved to Calgary where she worked at CHFM & CJAY-FM. In addition, she was a sports and entertainment reporter and weather announcer at CFCN-TV and TSN.
From June 1986 until present, Denis has been one of the co-hosts of CHUM-FM's morning show Roger, Rick and Marilyn, now "Roger and Marilyn" after the departure of Rick Hodge in June 2008 (Hodge's replacement, Darren B. Lamb, departed from the station in September 2015). From 1989 to May 2008, she also hosted the syndicated daytime talk show Cityline on Citytv and A-Channel.
With the CTVglobemedia purchase of CHUM Limited, and the subsequent sale of five Citytv stations to Rogers Media mandated by the Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission, Denis temporarily found herself working for two separate media competitors. To resolve this situation, Denis announced that she would be leaving Cityline after 19 years to pursue current and future projects with the CTV Television Network. Denis hosted her last show on May 23, 2008.
