Nik Deogun, editor in chief and senior vice president at CNBC, sent out the following staff announcement on Friday morning:
I’m pleased to announce that after a successful stint as co-host of “Worldwide Exchange” in London, Kelly Evans has returned to the U.S.
Starting Monday, Kelly will join the “Squawk on the Street” team as co-anchor, bringing her deep knowledge of the markets and economy to the program.
Prior to arriving at CNBC 15 months ago, Kelly was a reporter and columnist for The Wall Street Journal, penning the influential “Ahead of the Tape” column. She also hosted the daily “News Hub” program on WSJ.com.
Please join me in welcoming Kelly back to the U.S.
