Early life and education

Bernstein was born in Brooklyn, New York, and grew up in Howell, New Jersey. She was salutatorian of her class at Howell High School, where she is a member of the school's hall of fame. She obtained a degree in broadcast journalism from the University of Maryland, where she graduated magna cum laude. She was a four-time Academic All-America gymnastics champion, receiving the Thomas M. Fields award for excellence in academics and athletics. Bernstein maintains close links to her alma mater, serving on the Board of Visitors for the University of Maryland and the Povich Center for Sports Journalism. TerpVision, a quarterly television show showcasing the University and its distinguished alumni, is also hosted by Deborah.

Bernstein spent three years on the local radio ladder, beginning her career as the news and sports director at WXJN-FM radio in Lewes, Delaware, where she began her career as the news and sports director. Reno, Nevada's first female weekday sports anchor, worked at WMDT-TV in Salisbury, Maryland, as the ABC affiliate's weekend news anchor.

Bernstein began working with ESPN in 1995 as its Chicago Bureau Chief, where she analyzed Michael Jordan and the Chicago Bulls' record-breaking championship run (1996–98). During the Major League Baseball post-season and the NCAA Women's Division I Basketball Championship, she also worked as a reporter for Sunday NFL Countdown and College GameDay and published articles for SportsCenter.

Bernstein began covering CBS Sports in 1998 as the lead sideline reporter for the NCAA Men's Basketball Championships and feature reporter for The NFL Today. She went from sideline reporting for NFL on CBS to sideline reporting. She served with the Verne Lundquist/Dick Enberg and Dan Dierdorf crews until 2003, when she was promoted to Jim Nantz and Phil Simms' lead crew. Bernstein wrote for CBS Sports and Westwood One Radio on both network television and radio broadcast, and during Super Bowl XXVIII, she became the first correspondent to cover the game on both network television and network radio, reporting for CBS Sports and Westwood One Radio.

Bernstein continued to do "double duty" during the NFL season when he first signed with CBS/Westwood One Radio in 2001, including a Sunday game for CBS and Monday Night Football for radio.

Bernstein was involved in a match with University of Kansas basketball coach Roy Williams during the 2003 NCAA Men's Basketball Championship. During a post-game interview, Bernstein, the Jayhawks barely won to Syracuse, Bernstein inquired about the North Carolina open to which Williams had been attached. Williams, who looked genuinely distraught, suggested that a producer begged Bernstein to answer the question, adding, "I could give a shit about North Carolina right now." I have thirteen children in the locker room, which I adore." Williams later apologized for his on-air profanity and accepted the job in North Carolina a week later. "Bonnie's questions were pertinent," CBS Sports President Sean McManus said in response to the shooting. They had to be asked, and her result was completely professional."

Bernstein, in addition to her NFL and college basketball appearances, appeared in the NCAA Women's Gymnastics championship and CBS' Emmy-nominated anthology collection, Championships of the NCAA, and appeared as a studio host for CBS Sports' college basketball halftime studio show At The Half. Bernstein has also covered tennis, track and field, horse racing, and figure skating for the network, as well as hosting the US Open Tennis Championships and the Hambletonian.

Bernstein left CBS and rejoined ESPN in July as a field reporter for Sunday Night Baseball on ESPN with Jon Miller and Joe Morgan and college football reporter for ESPN on ABC. Doctors in both of Bernstein's lungs (pulmonary emboli) that originated in her left leg began on October 11, 2006, five days after suffering severe leg pain while reporting the Texas-Oklahoma Red River Rivalry. She returned to ESPN and ABC several weeks later, but the following season as a precautionary health precaution, she shifted her attention to studio filming of many of ESPN's top-profile shows, including NFL Live, Jim Rome Is Burning, Outside the Lines, First Take and College Football Live.

Bernstein was co-host and SportsCenter anchor for The Michael Kay Show on 1050 ESPN Radio in New York in September 2009. During the 2009-10 NFL playoffs, she also covered the New York Jets and hosted specialty programs. Bernstein was given her own daily NFL show, New York Football Live, co-hosted by Jets linebacker Greg Buttle in July 2010.

Bernstein was named vice president of Content and Brand Development for Campus Insiders, a digital partnership between Silver Chalice Ventures, the Chicago Bulls and White Sox's founder Jerry Reinsdorf, and IMG College, the country's top college sports marketing firm, in April 2013. Bernstein is also the network's on-air "face," hosting a daily studio show during the college football season and NCAA Basketball Championships. Her off-air duties include creating original programming for the network, researching and securing new sponsorship relationships, and designing brand extensions that extend the reach of CI's digital and social media pages.

She is a media consultant and national ambassador for ING KiDS ROCK, one of the country's biggest school-based running schemes. She co-chaired the group behind the establishment of the National Foundation for Sport, Sport, and Dietetic In 2010, which raises private funds for childhood obesity research.
