* * * Aaron Brown Biography * * *
There are very few
stories in our lifetime that Aaron Brown has not covered. That is one
way to measure his 30 year career. Beginning with the Viet Nam protests
and Watergate in the 70’s to the beginning of the Iraq war he has quite
literally, been there. But it is likely that he is best remembered for
one story – the attack of 9/11. On the air a half hour after the first
attack and broadcasting from a roof top in lower Manhattan Mr. Brown’s
coverage has been called courageous, calming and insightful.
Before he arrived at
CNN he was an anchor and correspondent for ABC News. Besides anchoring
World News Tonight Saturday he covered the trial of O. J. Simpson, two
California earthquakes, the shootings at Columbine, the violent
struggle for democracy in Haiti, the war in Bosnia and much more for
both World News Tonight with Peter Jennings and Nightline.
He is the winner of
three Emmys, a DuPont, two New York Film Society World medals. His
coverage of 9/11 earned him the coveted Edward R. Murrow Award.
From 2001 to November 2005, he was the anchor and managing editor of NewsNight on CNN.
He began his career at
18 hosting talk radio programs in Minneapolis near his hometown of
Hopkins Minnesota. After a short stint doing radio programs in Los
Angeles he moved to Seattle where for the next 18 years he was a
reporter and anchor at KING TV and KIRO TV. He left Seattle in 1991 to
join ABC News where he was the founding anchor of the ABC News
overnight program World News Now.
