2017 Granada Hills Holiday Parade Grand Marshal is
KTLA Channel 5 Anchor Chris Burrous!

Chris Burrous is a native son of the Golden State. Born and raised in Santa Clara, Chris eventually made his way down to Southern California for college at Chapman University.

His career has taken him up and down the state and across the country, but it was always his dream to work at KTLA, where he now proudly anchors the weekend morning news. Chris also hosts a popular segment called "Burroughs Bites" in which he attempts to eat his way through all the delectable delights the Southland has to offer, thanks to KTLA viewers tipping him off to some of our areas best food finds.

During his off hours, you can often find Chris returning to any number of those recommended eateries, with his wife Mai and their daughter Isabella in tow!
