Short questions with Dana Perino for Katie Pavlich

In this week's "Short questions with Dana Perino," Fox News contributor Katie Pavlich reveals the best career advice she ever received — and her favorite places in America.

You've seen us on screen, but have you ever wondered what we're like off-camera? 

For the last few months, I’ve enjoyed checking in with some of your favorite Fox personalities to learn more about who they are behind the scenes. 

What's the one thing Jesse Watters couldn’t live without? What's Bill Hemmer’s favorite Halloween costume? And what's sitting on Greg Gutfeld’s nightstand? 

But that's not all! The fun is just getting started.

This week, we're excited to shine the spotlight on Katie Pavlich. She joined FOX News Channel in 2013 and currently serves as a rotating panelist on FNC's "Outnumbered" (weekdays 12-1p.m./ET) and as a network contributor, providing political analysis and commentary across FNC's daytime and primetime programming.

In addition, Pavlich is the news editor for Townhall.com, a contributing editor to Townhall Magazine and the award-winning author of the New York Times bestseller "Fast and Furious: Barack Obama's Bloodiest Scandal and Its Shameless Cover-Up."

P.S. We have so much more in store for you. Stay tuned each week for new editions of "Short Questions with Dana Perino" — and if there’s a question you want answers to or a suggestion for the person I should interview next, leave a note in the comments section below. 

KP: All kinds of things. A weather woman, a country music singer and "an office lady."

I used to play office with my mom's old glasses, rolodex cards and folio agenda. I still use a paper planner. 

KP: Dana with the tough questions! I'm going with Taco Bell. Two hard-shell tacos with extra mild sauce (I like the flavor, but wish it were spicier). In-and-Out a very close second with a protein style burger.

KP: Although I sadly never had the chance to meet Grandpa Pavlich, I've still learned so much from the example he set throughout his life: toughness, grit, determination, resolve. He wore that WWII helmet liner fighting with the U.S. Army's 158th Infantry, known as the Bushmasters, in the Philippines. 

He got malaria and was transferred to an Australian hospital for treatment. 

During his stay, he took notice of my grandmother, who worked at the hospital. They eloped, she shipped out from Sydney to the middle of nowhere in Arizona, while he went back to the war. She waited and they eventually reunited when he made it home. She was also one heck of a woman. 

I learned about him through my dad and other family members, but also from the people he impacted in the small little town of Globe, Arizona. 

To this day, I still get emails from folks asking if I'm related to Coach John Pavlich, whom they played football or basketball for back in the day. He's an Arizona legend with a spot in the Northern Arizona University Athletics Hall Fame of (he was quite the football player himself) and in the Arizona High School Athletics Coaches Hall of Fame. 

His parents were immigrants from Croatia (former Yugoslavia) who came through Ellis Island to work in the mines of America. All three of their children, my grandpa included, wasted no time in their pursuit of the American dream. 

KP: I don't remember exactly the year I first learned how to shoot a gun, but for my 10th birthday my dad gifted me my first hunting rifle. It was immediately put to good use. 

KP: Everywhere we went the people were so hospitable, but Three Forks Ranch was my favorite. It's the palace of Wyoming. Just spectacular. 

The owners and staff are wonderful people. 

KP: Arizona because it's home and gorgeous with so many different kinds of terrain and environments. 

However, the Grand Tetons and Yellowstone in Wyoming are a very close second. 

It's still so wild, rugged and wonderful there. I'm a mountain gal.

KP: A longtime family friend once said to "run your own race." 

That has stuck with me and served me well.

KP: Marry someone secure with themselves and always operate from a place of kindness.
