.. About Me
In addition to co-hosting "Morning Joe" with Joe Scarborough, I also appear on Nightly News and the Today Show.
Although I did work at MSNBC back in 2000, I spent a large part of my career at CBS, where I anchored "CBS Evening News Weekend Edition," and served as a correspondent for "CBS Sunday Morning and "60 Minutes."
When I left CBS I dove into being a full time wife and mom, and while I cherished the ample time with my children, I found myself failing miserably! After 20 years of working up to and becoming a roving reporter, correspondent and anchor, the adjustment was, let's say, a challenge. After suffering through my horrible, and I mean absolutely terrible home cooking for a few months, my husband said, "boy you better hurry up an get a job before we all get sick!"
I ended up taking a job that thought would provide "balance" for the family - a little fill-in work back at MSNBC. That is, until the network pulled the plug on Imus, and suddenly MSNBC had three hours to fill. Joe went for the job, and recruited me as sidekick. Now my children and husband don't have to be afraid of my home cooking anymore...
