Early life and career Rohmer's father is Richard Rohmer, an officer with the Royal Canadian Air Force. She grew up in Don Mills. Her mother was Mary Olivia Whiteside Rohmer, a grade school teacher.

Rohmer was trained by top figure skating coach Sheldon Galbraith, Rohmer competed at the provincial level until she was involved in a car accident at the age of 14. Although this ended her skating career, it has not stopped her from playing tennis, being an aerobics instructor and participating in both water and downhill skiing.

For her primary and secondary education, Rohmer attended the Branksome Hall all-girls private school before transferring to the public Northern Secondary School in her final year of high school, graduating in 1974. As a university student, she began acting in television commercials as a means of earning extra money. Her desire to write and edit the scripts sparked a desire to work as a television presenter. Afterwards, she was hired by the Global Television Network as a co-host on the magazine show That's Life which lasted from 1983 to 1987. Rohmer was then hired as a sports anchor for CBC; following that she was a features reporter on CTV's Canada AM for two years. Her new position was supposed to be outside broadcasting. But in the fall of 2010, she returned to her regular weekday morning anchoring duties at CP24. CP24 did not address the reason for her return, or even the fact that she had returned to the anchor desk. She continued to host Animal House Calls and Hot Property.

In November 2015, Rohmer announced her retirement on CP24 after 35 years of broadcasting, and 17 years at CP24. In 2016 however, she returned to CP24 as a fill-in anchor for a year before leaving for a final time in 2017.

After CP24 Rohmer was the co-host of Context Beyond The Headlines, a program produced by Crossroads Christian Communications, for the 2019/2020 season.

She currently hosts two shows on York Region radio station CFMS-FM, The Feed, a weekly local newsmagazine show covering York Region, and interview show In Conversation with Ann Rohmer.

On August 19, 2022, she registered to run as a candidate for Toronto City Council but ended her campaign on August 28 due to "unforeseen family issues". Her name remained on the ballot, however, as the deadline to withdraw had passed.
