David Reiter, senior vice president CBS News 24/7, Special Events and Special Projects, shared this note with staff:
Hi everyone.
Please welcome Kelly O’Grady to the CBS News team as our CBS News MoneyWatch Correspondent.
Kelly joins us from Fox Business where she was a correspondent and fill-in anchor. She did stints in both New York and Los Angeles focused on markets and technology. Kelly earned her MBA from Harvard Business School and graduated from Harvard College with a Bachelor of Arts in Social Studies and East Asian Studies. She will be based in New York where she lives with her husband and French bulldog “Biggie.”
We know the economy has been a top priority for viewers, so we are adding Kelly to our all-star MoneyWatch team that includes Jo Ling Kent and Jill Schlesinger. With CBS News 24/7 adding additional live hours during the day, Kelly will help provide more coverage of daily markets, breaking business and consumer news, new technology and other topics. Kelly will also step in during Jo Ling’s maternity leave.
As with other MoneyWatch stuff, please go through Jamie Nguyen to request Kelly.
I know you’ll all give her a warm welcome.
Thank you,
