Clay Ferraro Biography and Wiki
Clay Ferraro is an American Sports Reporter who joined Local 10 News team in 2014 to pursue his dream profession of covering major sports for a top-tier station in paradise. You might argue Clay was destined for this position.
He had his first appearance on television when he was in his mother’s womb, on Jerry Lewis’ Labor Day telethon, and he spent his youth impersonating sportscasters he heard on the radio and saw on TV. So, after it became evident that he would never be talented enough to play any sports (though he still tries and believes he can), pursuing a career in television seemed like the next logical step.

CHILDHOOD DIAGNOSIS
“When I was a kid, I was known as Mr. Mint because every baseball I collected had to be in perfect condition,” Clay recalled.
Growing up in Virginia, Clay liked to collect baseball cards, and he liked for them to be pristine.
“Every time I touched a baseball card, I had to make sure my hands were 100 percent clean. Well, that started with just washing the hands once, but then it became two times. Then it became four times,” Clay said.
It got to the point where Clay had to wash his hands 16 times before he felt comfortable touching a baseball card. His hands would crack and bleed.
With worried and supportive parents, Clay saw a doctor and was diagnosed with a severe anxiety disorder.
“I was diagnosed when I was really young. It manifests itself the most with obsessive compulsive disorder, also known as OCD,” he said.
Clay sometimes took medication and underwent therapy.
He said he still struggled in school but pushed through, did well in college and eventually found success in the TV business.
TURNING POINT
Clay became a well-known sports and news anchor in Fort Myers. That’s where he met his now-wife, Kristen.
He hoped his illness was something he could manage.
“I told her that I was over this because I felt as though I was,” Clay said.
But Clay wasn’t “over it,” and said he sometimes struggled during his drive home from work at night.
“For whatever reason, it manifested itself in a terrible fear when I drove,” he said.
One afternoon, things took a turn on a drive to church.
