A. Jedediah Louisa Bila (born January 29, 1979) is an American television host, author, and columnist. She is known for her time as a co-host on The View and as an anchor on the weekend edition of Fox & Friends.

She has written columns for websites such as FoxNews.com, Verily, Human Events, The Daily Caller, and Townhall.

Background

Bila was born in Brooklyn, New York, and grew up in Staten Island. She is of Italian descent.

In 2000, Bila graduated from Wagner College with a B.A. in Spanish, and has an M.A. in Spanish literature from Columbia University. In 2005, she began teaching in New York. She taught creative writing, Spanish, and improvisation to middle school, high school, and college students. She also served as a teacher, student advisor, and academic dean at the Birch Wathen Lenox School preparatory school in Manhattan's Upper East Side.

Television career

Bila's transition from education to politics came in 2009, when she reviewed talk radio host Mark Levin's book Liberty and Tyranny: A Conservative Manifesto on her blog. Levin later read the review on air, prompting Fox News' Sean Hannity to invite her on his television show.

In 2011, she appeared as a guest on Hannity and Red Eye, soon expanding her role as commentator to other networks, including CNBC and MSNBC. In 2013, she joined the Fox News team, and in April 2014 she began appearing as a co-host and panelist on Outnumbered, The Five, and other programs.

In August 2016, Bila announced her departure from Fox News to join ABC's The View as a permanent co-host during the show's 20th season. While on the show, Bila served as the conservative voice to contrast the liberal co-hosts. Bila departed The View on September 18, 2017. Bila made a return guest appearance on The View on October 17, 2018.

In 2017, Bila hosted the Lifetime special Abby Tells All. She appears occasionally on The Greg Gutfeld Show and The Five, and appears on several Sirius XM shows. In April 2019, she was named as a permanent co-host of Fox & Friends Weekend.

Books

In 2011, Bila published her first book Outnumbered: Chronicles of a Manhattan Conservative, an autobiographical recounting of her experiences as a conservative living and teaching in Manhattan during the 2008 presidential election.

In 2018, her second book #DONOTDISTURB: How I Ghosted My Cell Phone to Take Back My Life was published by HarperCollins.

Personal life

In early 2018, after an eight-month engagement, Bila married Jeremy Scher, a corporate strategist and graduate of Rice University. The couple welcomed their first child, a boy, in November 2019. On April 9, 2020, Bila revealed via Instagram, that she and her husband were recovering from COVID-19.

Bila has stated that she is not a Democrat or a Republican, and that she has a "strong libertarian streak." She is a registered independent.
