Joanne Flynn Black of Indian American magazine profiles Shibani Joshi of Fox Business Network in the latest issue and talks to her about her career.
Black writes, “When she looked to a career in media, she had very few role models. However, there was one who truly inspired her, Dr. Sanjay Gupta, CNN’s chief medical correspondent. She saw him as someone who had taken a traditional Indian job yet transformed it to another level by combining it with media.
“‘Dr. Gupta is not only a leader in the field of medicine but has crossed over and is exccedingly successful in the world o fmedia. ….Becoming an Indian doctor no longer seems so boring, if you follow Dr. Gupta’s lead,” she says.
“Joshi’s career in the media has been varied. Prior to joining Fox, she worked at a variety of media organizations, including Reuters Television and Times Now — a joint venture news channel with the Times of India, ImaginAsian TV’s “The Pulse” South Asian variety show, and CNNfn. Wanting to pursue business more passionately, she attended Harvard Business School where she received her MBA.”
