Helen Glover (born April 28, 1955 in Honolulu, Hawaii) is an American talk radio host and former cast member on the reality television series Survivor: Thailand where she finished in fourth place.

Survivor appearance[]

Glover was a cast member on Survivor: Thailand (2002), the fifth season of the reality show Survivor.[1] She survived to the final four, eventually done in by a conspiracy led by the eventual winner, Brian Heidik. Glover was the season's third most popular contestant according to an online poll conducted by CBS.[2] In 2004, Glover was accused by CBS of violating her confidentiality agreement by divulging behind-the-scenes information in a freelance column for The Providence Journal. As a result of the controversy, the Journal dropped the column.[3]

Radio career[]

Glover began hosting the 6-10 A.M. morning show on TalkRadio 920 WHJJ in September 2005.[4] which was named by the Associated Press as the best talk show among AP member stations for a record 4 times (most recently in 2012) in Rhode Island and Massachusetts.[5] In August 2013, she was let go by the station, replaced by local radio host Ron St. Pierre.[6]

Personal life[]

Glover is the daughter of a U.S. Marine and has lived in Hawaii, Virginia, Arkansas, North Carolina, California, Louisiana, and Rhode Island. Prior to her appearance on Survivor, Glover was employed by the U.S. Navy as a water survival instructor. She is married with two children, and lives in Portsmouth, Rhode Island.[7] Jim made an episode appearance on Survivor for the reward challenge.
