Connie Chung with Walter Isaacson

Connie Chung is the first woman to co-anchor the CBS Evening News and the first Asian to anchor any news program in the U.S. Profoundly influenced by her family’s cultural traditions, yet growing up completely Americanized in the United States, Chung describes her career in a white, male-centered world. Overt sexism was a way of life, but Chung was tenacious in her pursuit of stories. From showdowns with powerful men to stories behind some of her career-defining reporting, Connie is an unfettered behind-the-scenes tour of a singular life.

Connie Chung speaks about her memoir with biographer and historian Walter Isaacson.
