Sheena McDonald is a Scottish journalist and broadcaster, known for her work on radio and television over several decades. She studied English at the University of Edinburgh and took a postgraduate course in radio, film and television at the University of Bristol. McDonald began her career at BBC Radio Scotland in 1978 and moved into television in 1981, becoming a familiar voice and face on networks such as STV, Channel 4 and the BBC.
As a presenter and anchor she hosted current affairs and debate programmes — including The World at One, Channel 4 News, The World This Week and International Question Time — and in 1995 received the Woman in Film and Television pioneering award. She was also a co‑founder of the Edinburgh Festival Fringe newspaper Festival Times and contributed columns to The List magazine.
In 1999 she suffered a serious head injury after being struck by a vehicle, an event that interrupted her career for several years; she documented her recovery in broadcasts and later in the book Rebuilding Life after Brain Injury: Dreamtalk (2019), helping raise awareness of issues around post‑brain‑injury rehabilitation.
McDonald is married to journalist Allan Little. Her work is characterised by public service journalism, moderating debates and by her personal account of recovery and resilience.
