Canadian-American Television Personality

Barberie was born in Ontario and adopted as a baby by an electrician and a nurse, Jim and Mariel Warry. Her birth parents, immigrants from Ireland and England, felt they were too young to be parents.

In addition to weather forecasting for KTTV Fox 11 in Los Angeles, she has appeared in television sitcoms and presented other shows.

She was formerly married to the baseball player Bret Barberie.
