You know her from her iconic, history-making interviews on CBS and 60 minutes, to being one of only three women in our history to solo anchor the primetime evening network news! She’s interviewed every living president and TODAY, for the first time ever, She’s agreed to BE THE ONE getting Interviewed, that’s right, Norah has never before done a podcast or long-form sit-down interview where the tables are turned and she’s the one being asked the questions…and I am SO honored, excited and grateful that she’s here in person with you and me today for her first ever podcast interview!
In addition to Interviewing every Living US President, including her much-talked about recent viral interview with the current President, NORAH O’DONNELL has interviewed the most prominent World Leaders from Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to Saudi Crown Prince MBS, to the Dalai Lama, Malala, Oprah, and Dolly Parton to a historic, first-of-it’s kind sit down with Pope Francis.
And over her decades-long, distinguished career, award-winning journalist Norah O’Donnell has also made it her mission to shed light on untold women’s stories. Now, in honor of America’s 250th birthday, she’s focusing that passion on the American heroines who helped change the course of history. In her brand new book We the Women: The Hidden Heroes Who Shaped America, We the Women presents a fresh look at American history through the eyes of women, introducing us to inspiring patriots who demanded that the country live up to the promises made 250 years ago in the Declaration of Independence: “that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.” Since the signing of that document, Norah says the pressing question from women has been: Why don’t those unalienable rights apply to us?
Norah has flown across the country to be here with you and me today in her first ever long-form sit down interview where she’s the one in the hot seat and I am so excited for this conversation! And for this worldwide premier of Norah O’Donnell on the Jamie Kern Lima Show!
