Marsha Shandur (born 1977){{cn|date=August 2018}} is a former radio presenter best known for presenting on Xfm London and Xfm Manchester (as Marsha).

Career

Shandur presented numerous shows on Xfm during her 8 years at the station before announcing that she was leaving Xfm to live in Toronto, Ontario, Canada in January 2011.{{cn|date=August 2018}}

She was the music supervisor for E4 shows The Inbetweeners and the first two seasons of Made in Chelsea.{{cn|date=August 2018}}

She also made a podcast for Xfm called Marsha Meets... in which she has interviewed comedians such as Stewart Lee, Rufus Hound, Greg Davies, Richard Herring and Russell Kane. The Guardian has twice named it one of the world's Top Ten Best Comedy Podcasts.[1][2]

In 2016, Shandur co-authored the book Off The Mic: The World's Best Stand Up Comedians Get Serious About Comedy with Deborah Frances-White which came out on Bloomsbury Publishing.[3] The book, about the mechanics of stand-up comedy, features new interviews with 42 comedians, including Eddie Izzard, Phill Jupitus, Sarah Millican, Jim Jefferies, Lewis Black and Marc Maron. The Independent called it "Fascinating – part textbook, part therapist’s notebook."[4] In December 2016, it was nominated for a Chortle Award.[5]

Personal life

On 11 November 2012, Shandur ran a solo marathon in London. She made the decision to do this after the New York City Marathon was cancelled due to Hurricane Sandy.[6] Shandur's run was covered by the BBC,[7] ITV,[8] Xfm[9] and Complete Music Update[10] in the UK and CBC Radio One[11] in Canada. This helped her raise over £3,600[12] for The Royal Marsden's Cancer Charity, a charity she had chosen in honour of Lisa Lynch, author of The C Word.

Openly bisexual, Shandur now lives in Toronto, Canada.{{cn|date=August 2018}}
