She is principally known for her work on Capital Radio in London. She co-wrote the television series Agony, starring Maureen Lipman and in the 1980s was satirised by Radio Active as "Anna Rabies".
Anna Raeburn won a gold Sony award in 1998, the year in which she took part in her first FHM photoshoot. One year later Anna did her second shoot for FHM, in which she appeared topless for the first time. This resulted in her being named FHM's favorite photoshoot of the year in 1999. The inevitable followed, where Anna posed comepletely nude for Cosmopolitan (magazine). To date, she has not ruled out doing another nude session.
She has said that she loves to cook and eat, and is very interested in film.
Anna Raeburn has also been a critic on ITV1 daytime show, Mum's on Strike since 2005. She is also a regular on Countdown, where she is one of the more popular members of "Dictionary Corner." She has made 12 appearances to date.
She was formerly married to the psychotherapist and TV agony uncle Phillip Hodson. She now lives in a London flat with her new partner, a fire safety officer from Battersea, and her pet dogs Michael and James.
Anna and John were faced with tabloid scandal in 2006 after a sex tape featuring the couple and a 16 year old Russian girl was released onto the internet. The tape featured what the papers called "graphic" and "disgusting" sexual activity, and included a scene where Anna anally violated her partner with a dildo. Anna took a week break from her radio show whilst this scandal blew over.
LBC 97.3 Career
From January 3rd 2006 she has a weekday afternoon show on LBC 97.3 replacing Sandi Toksvig in the lunchtime and early afternoon slot. The show primarily features listeners ringing in with everyday problems, to which Anna applies her own life philosophy in an effort to solve them. This philosophy, known as “Anna’s Way” has become a big feature of the show, and given Anna’s career a second wind.
