Dana Bash Biography

With almost two decades covering domestic politics for CNN, few can rival Dana Bash’s understanding of national politics. A keen watcher of all things Washington, Bash keeps audiences informed and engaged on topics as varied as the national political climate, women in politics, and her own connection to Judaism.

Bash also brings her extensive interview experience to the stage as a moderator, having facilitated presidential primary debates as well as CNN’s political town hall specials. She serves as the network's chief political correspondent and co-anchor of “State of the Union with Jake Tapper and Dana Bash,” CNN's Sunday morning newsmaker show. Based in Washington, D.C., she covers both campaigns and Congress and regularly serves as a moderator for CNN's political town hall specials. She moderated CNN's first debate of the 2020 election cycle in Detroit, as well as the last Democratic Presidential Debate of the cycle held in Washington, D.C. Bash also anchored special coverage of "Election Night in America" surrounding the 2020 election, which lasted several days until CNN was the first to project Joe Biden as the winner. Additionally, she is a recipient of multiple awards including the Joan S. Barone Award for excellence in congressional reporting and the Everett McKinley Dirksen for Distinguished Reporting of Congress Award from the National Press Foundation three times.

Bash has played a critical role in CNN's coverage of major events, such as the 2016 presidential primary debates, election night specials, and significant breaking news like Kevin McCarthy's decision not to run for Speaker of the House. Her coverage has extended to major national events including Hurricane Katrina, the CIA leak investigation, and the capture of Saddam Hussein. In addition to her Sunday show, Bash launched her CNN series “Being…” in 2021, which offers in-depth conversations with key figures in American policy, politics, and culture. She also initiated the digital CNN series “Badass Women of Washington” in 2017, highlighting women who have broken barriers in their respective fields.

In her investigative work, Bash has taken a deep dive into the rise of antisemitism in the U.S. with her CNN Special Report "Rising Hate: Antisemitism in America." The documentary visited communities affected by recent violence and explored methods to confront growing antisemitism. Her ongoing contributions to political reporting continue to provide critical insights into the workings of Congress and the broader political landscape in the United States.
