Her father was involved in politics for a decade and was an assistant to a senator on Capitol Hill. She has three older brothers.
In 2003 she attended the University of Tennessee, and in 2007 graduated with a Bachelor of Arts in Political Science and Government, which was helpful in her pursuit of a successful career as a political commentator and Republican Strategist.
She was part of the Phi Mu sorority during her years in university.
Career
Politics
After graduating, she worked as a Republican staff assistant in the US House of Representatives. Her hard work meant that in 2010 she got to work on the National Republican Congressional Committee, and two years later during the election campaign, when she was the communications director for the Republican representative, Sandy Adams in 2012. She worked for Sandy’s re-election campaign from 2011 to 2012, and even though the November 2012 election was lost, Lisa gained experience and a strong reputation.
She was a then spokeswoman for the Senate campaign of Tommy Thompson, and afterwards, also worked with well-renowned politicians such as Congresswoman Shelley Moore Capito and Congressman Mark Meadows. In 2014, she was invited to work as the senior director at for a global investment management co-operation, the Black Rock Group during the election campaign. She was also a consultant on Dan Sullivan’s Senate race, including developing communication strategies for politicians. She became vice president of public affairs research at WPA Research and political polling in 2015, which involved working with various politicians from around the country.
She was a contributing writer from 2016 to 2017 for “The Washington Examiner,” “The Hill” and “The Washington Times.” She is the president and founder of the public communications and political affairs firm, High Noon Strategies, which works intimately with Fortune 500 companies to provide political consultations and strategies. She is a senior member of the conservative activist group, Independent Women’s Voice, which is the sister organization of the Independent Women’s Forum.
Fox News
She began working for the Fox News Channel in October 2016, starting as a network contributor, with her duties including political commentary and analysis in the FNC primetime and daytime programs.
Since her start on the network, Lisa has appeared in various Fox shows and has filled in for hosts during several segments. On 6 August 2017, Fox News announced that Lisa would stand-in for Eric Bolling on their show “Specialists,”, but in September 2017 they announced the show’s cancellation, after Eric’s departure from the network.
She occasionally co-hosts “The Five” and “Outnumbered,” is often a guest on “The Story” and a panelist on “Special Report,’ all of which are aired on the Fox News Channel.
Personal life
She is a secretive person and likes to keep her personal life private.
She is reportedly in a relationship with John Bourbonia Cummins; the rumors came after John posted a comment on one of Lisa’s pictures on Facebook, actually a slightly sarcastic comment, thanking her for cropping him out of the photo. In response, she replied, ‘Love you. Mean it.’
Bella Marie Boothe is her Cavalier King Charles dog.
She is open and proud about being a Republican, and is quick to defend her stand-point and beliefs. In an April 2017 issue of the “Washington Examiner,” Lisa wrote, ‘The body count is piling up, and it is time to fight back. We have seen the Left stop at nothing to systematically destroy the lives of the people they disagree with… And while the Right should never engage in the violent tactics of the Left, they should also never allow their voices to be stifled.’
She hasn’t been afraid to defend American President Donald Trump; one such instance was when he reportedly met with a Russian lawyer who allegedly promised to provide Trump with incriminating information against Hillary Clinton.
Recently, she defended President Trump when he was accused of being anti-American by singer, Bruce Springsteen. On “The Story,” she said, ‘I think being president of the United States is about as American as it gets, especially for a guy who gave up his cushy lifestyle as a billionaire to decide to run for president… So I think President Trump loves this country.’
Due to her blatant openness regarding her political standing, she is involved in a lot of controversies, and regularly accuses the media of liberal bias, feeling that the majority of journalists have liberal inclinations. After President Trump’s inauguration, she shared on Fox News that she thinks he has ‘exposed the media as largely partisan.’
On 14 July 2017, while on air on Fox News’s “The Five,” she insulted Hillary Clinton by claiming that Hillary is so desperate to become the president, that she would sell her daughter if it ensured her win.
Her statement got even more attention when Hillary’s daughter replied to it via a tweet and said, ‘No, she wouldn’t. I’ve never doubted & always known I was the most important part of her life. Now, as a mom, I’m even more grateful to my mom.’

Emily Compagno’s (Fox News) Biography – Husband, Salary
Emily Compagno is an American lawyer, TV correspondent, and a former National Football League (NFL) cheerleader, who rose to prominence through her work as a Fox News Channel contributor.
Contents
Early Life and Family
Emily Rose Compagno is of part-Italian-American descent, born on 9 November 1979 at a Naval Hospital in Oak Knoll, California, USA to parents John and Katherine Compagno. She and her older sisters Natalie Compagno and Julietta Compagno Skoog were raised in El Cerrito, Contra Costa County in California. Her sister Natalie is a lifestyle influencer and blogs about the fashion industry with her blog entitled “LA Lifestyle,” and is married to Greg who owns a travel bookstore in California.
Julietta has two daughters with husband Jon Skoog.
Emily is pretty close to her paternal grandparents, John and Josephine Bileci Compagno. Her maternal great grandfather was William Harry Bertsch whose wife’s name Rose and where Emily’s second name came from.
Education
She graduated with a Bachelor’s degree in Political Science from the University of Washington, and was awarded the Juris Doctorate degree in 2006 at the University of San Francisco.
Career
Legal Career
After completing an externship in the US Court of Appeals for the 9th Circuit with Judge Noonan, and passing the California Bar exams, Emily started practicing law as a criminal defense and civil litigation attorney in a law firm based in the southern part of San Francisco.
She handled mostly non-violent juvenile and financially-motivated white-collar cases.
From 2010 to 2014, Emily also worked as a federal managing attorney, and was later promoted as Acting Director for the Social Security Administration. As a government attorney in one of the top agencies in the US, she was able to deal with a wide variety of civil and administrative legal cases, such as fraud, regulatory labor issues including employment contracts.
Team Captain, Oakland Raiderettes Cheerleading Squad
With her regular job as a lawyer, Emily also decided to fulfill her childhood dream of being a professional dancer, and applied for a spot in the football cheerleading squad with the Oakland Raiderettes, and joined the squad in April of 2007.
From an interview with SFGate she said, “I’ve been dancing since I was 3, so it’s natural to want that part of my life, the love of performing satisfied.” She did not see it as a substitute career; it just so happened that she did not have time to pursue this dream when she was in law school. It was something that complements her and served as an outlet of her love of performing.
From a regular cheerleader, she was promoted to be the team captain of the Oakland Raiderettes – it was classified as part-time work, but in reality, she said that the work they do for the team equates to a full-time commitment, even if most of the girls have a day job, so in the end, most of her spare time was allocated to cheerleading tasks.
She was included to perform during the NFL’s military tour in Iraq and Kuwait, as well as one of only four cheerleaders chosen to promote during the NFL China launch in Beijing and Shanghai.
Emily never broadcasts her cheerleading position when she is working as an attorney, and at the same time, she does not openly tell everyone in the cheerleading world that she is a practicing lawyer.
Fox News Contributor
All through her work as a civil litigator and a part-time cheerleader, she never lost focus on her ultimate dream of becoming a legal analyst, and that became a reality when Fox News Network offered her the dream job. Many were surprised at the change of career, as few were aware of her legal background, and only knew her as the cheerleading team captain.
With her diversified legal experience from being a criminal defense lawyer in a private firm and working as a federal attorney handling social security disputes, she was the perfect choice for becoming an on-air legal analyst on a variety of local and national issues. She started as a guest commentator on shows, asking for opinions from a business and legal analyst.
Later on, her in-depth experience in the world of football helped in doing sports commentaries. She also covered various other sporting events, particularly the PAC-12, in which universities vie for championship titles in several games. Even some sports magazines have acquired her expertise as a contributor.
Emily can be seen regularly in various shows such as “The Five,” “Fox and Friends: Weekend,” “The Greg Gutfeld Show,” and “Crimes That Changed America” on Fox News, Fox Business, and Fox Sports networks.
Personal Life
Emily was married to Peter Riley on 13 September 2017, in a secret wedding ceremony at the Hotel Villa Cimbrone in Italy. They met in high school in California, but it took about two decades to reconnect, when they saw each other again in Seattle and started dating. Little else is known about her husband except for the pictures she’s shared of their wedding day and the wedding ring photo that her husband accidentally left, as she posted on her Instagram account.

She and her husband are currently living in Seattle, Washington State.
