About Kris Millgate

The quiet cast of a fly line cures writer’s block for outdoor journalist Kris Millgate. Many of her multi-media production ideas come from the time she spends outdoors in Southeast Idaho where she hosts the weekly outdoor TV segment Time OUT with Kris Millgate. Through the segment, she investigates outdoor and environmental issues for TV and the web with cross publication in newspapers and magazines.

Millgate recognized the meshing of the mediums four years ago and made the bold move to multi-media as a freelancer. Through her production company, Tight Line Media, she produces stories using video and voice, pictures and print, then wires and web.

Along with hosting Time OUT, she produces shows for Outdoor Idaho and writes for Associated Press, Post Register and several magazines. She also shoots still art for the stories she uncovers.

Millgate is a member of Outdoor Writers Association of America, National Association of Professional Women and Idaho Press Club. She won 1st place for Outdoor Ethics with OWAA in 2009 and the Communicator Award of Distinction in 2008.

Her 13 years of experience and several cross-country moves prove she’ll go anywhere for a good story. Contact Millgate at timeout@tightlinemedia.com
