Matt Gutman Biography

Matt Gutman is ABC News’ Chief National Correspondent based in Los Angeles. He reports for all ABC News broadcasts and platforms, including “World News Tonight with David Muir,” “20/20,” “Good Morning America” and “Nightline.” He has reported for ABC from 40 countries across the globe.

Gutman, a multiple award-winning correspondent, has covered the COVID-19 crisis, the protests in American streets following the death of George Floyd, the immigration crisis, and countless foreign and domestic terror attacks. Over the past half-decade, Gutman has been one of the most frequently used correspondents on “20/20," and his tireless reporting helped “20/20” win an Emmy® for its documentary on the 2017 Las Vegas massacre and a Christopher Award for its reporting on the Thai cave rescue. Gutman followed every step of that treacherous mission to save the 12 boys and their soccer coach from a flooded cave in Thailand. He subsequently authored “The Boys in the Cave,” which chronicled the heroics of a motley crew of cave diving misfits, the US Airforce, and Thai Navy Seals who spearheaded the rescue.

Previously based in Miami, he won awards for his coverage of the Trayvon Martin Shooting and the BP Oil spill. From 2013 to 2018 he hosted the ABC Television Network’s Saturday morning show, “Sea Rescue,” which won the 2016 Emmy for “Outstanding Children’s Series.” Before joining ABC News in 2008 where he started at ABC News Radio, Gutman was a Jerusalem-based reporter for seven years, covering every major conflict in the Middle East.

In 2023, Gutman published "No Time to Panic: How I Curbed My Anxiety and Conquered a Lifetime of Panic Attacks," where he describes his personal journey into the science and treatment of panic attacks. Gutman is married and a father of two. He is a graduate of Williams College in Massachusetts.
