WCCO and  KARE TV anchor, growing beyond anchoring the news into the Pat Miles Specials that dove deep into stories of notable Minnesotans.

In 2001, Miles returned to her radio roots and began hosting a daily show on WCCO Radio from 9:00-Noon.

A 2008 inductee into the Minnesota Broadcasting Hall of Fame, Miles was beloved in the Twin Cities, a role model for female journalists, and a passionate storyteller. She’s now taking that storytelling to book form, with her new book, “Before All Is Said and Done: Practical Advice on Living and Dying Well”. The book explores Miles’ marriage, relationship, and the eventual death of her husband, Charles "Bucky" Zimmerman whom she married in 2006. Zimmerman died in 2019 of cancer.
