Bucky Zimmerman, former Gopher tennis player and prominent local lawyer, will marry media personality Pat Miles on October 8 in Santa Fe, New Mexico. The couple first met in Minneapolis in 1978 and their interests include a passion for golf.
Miles said she and Zimmerman are “about nine handicaps.” They both love golf, Miles said, and play as much as they can. Her home courses are Spring Hill Golf Club in Long Lake (Michael Jordan is a member) and Minikahda in Minneapolis. “They are like children (to me),” Miles said. “I just can’t let go of either.”
Miles recently gave up her WCCO Radio show, but after years in the media business, including as a popular local TV anchor, she is still making commercials and is available as a substitute host on WCCO. Zimmerman has a successful Minneapolis law firm, Zimmerman and Reed.
Miles said the couple will split time between Minneapolis and Arizona after they are married.
