Hari Sreenivasan

Hari Sreenivasan is an Emmy Award-winning Reporter, Anchor, and Executive Producer with decades of experience at the intersection of television and digital platforms. He pioneered a technology beat for a local tv station while rising up through broadcast television, and after working on technology-focused programs across the USA and Sci-Fi networks, he began reporting and anchoring for national news programs. From helping launch ABC News Now to anchoring the overnight / early morning programs for ABC, he leapt to being the Dallas-based Correspondent for CBS News. Sreenivasan then began a long career in public media by becoming a nightly fixture on the PBS Newshour and anchoring its weekend program for 8 years. During that time he also anchored programs on science and technology before focusing his efforts on long-form interviews and creating a YouTube channel helping people learn about misinformation. His work has been recognized with National and Local Emmys as well as a Webby award.

Sreenivasan's work overseas has ranged from exploring malnutrition in Guatemala, green energy technologies off the shores of Scotland, hotel bombings in Jordan, and the plight of powerless rural villagers in India. He has crisscrossed the lower 48 covering far too much inclement weather from hurricanes Katrina, Rita, and Wilma, to ice storms in Kentucky, to floods in Iowa. He has had to interview everyone from polygamists across a fence in Texas to philosopher Slavoj Zizek on a stroll in Riverside Park to then-Vice President Gore on an airport tarmac. His career has kept renewing his license to stay curious.
