Bengal Bio: Mary Cobb Rice

After graduating from Brighton, Mary attended the University of Utah, studying Mass Communication, Political Science, and Criminology. Mary knew after her high school internship at KUTV that she wanted a career in news. Her passion for current events and politics has served her well. Mary followed her dream, and has worked at the top radio and television stations in the Utah market for the past 8 years. She is currently the Assignment Manager at KTVX in Salt Lake City.

In September, 2005 Mary tied the knot with her high school sweetheart Kris Rice (class of ’99). Kris is an IT analyst for National Benefit Services. They currently live in West Jordan, Utah and are the proud parents of a darling French Bulldog named Abby. No human kids yet, but hopefully soon!

Mary’s favorite memories from high school are participating in plays, musicals, and
anything theater related. Winning the regional theater competition was amazing! Mary
also loved the theater trips to New York and San Francisco. She also loved serving as a
state officer for FBLA, and of course cheering on the football team (especially when Kris
was playing). The absolute top memory was meeting the man she would spend the rest of
her life with on the first day of her sophomore year. After nearly 13 years together, they
are still going strong!
