Loretta Maxine Schrijver (born May 16, 1956 in New York City) is a Dutch television host.[1]

Schrijver started working for television after finishing her studies History and Translation Science, after which she became a famous television personality. She was a news anchor for RTL News since 1989, alongside Jeroen Pauw among others. In 2000 she exchanged RTL 4 for the AVRO and co-hosted the television program Alle dieren tellen mee (All animals count). After working there for a year she decided that public broadcasting didn't suit her and she returned to the RTL News.

In 2005 she was acclaimed the most popular news anchor in the Netherlands in a survey.

In an interview with the NCRV in May 2001, Loretta Schrijver, whose Jewish father survived the Holocaust, clearly distances herself from the position of victim society tends to put her in because of her family history.
