Claman renews contract with Fox Business

Fox Business Network anchor Liz Claman has renewed her deal with the business news channel, a spokeswoman confirmed.

Claman’s “Countdown to the Closing Bell” airs in the 3 p.m. on Fox Business. She had also been co-anchoring “After the Bell” with David Asman at 4 p.m. until last month.

Claman joined Fox Business in October 2007, the month it launched. During her tenure, Claman has conducted interviews with former Intel CEO Paul Otellini, former Ford CEO Alan Mulally, Google Executive Chairman Eric Schmidt, JPMorgan Chase Chairman and CEO Jamie Dimon, and former United States Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner, as well as joint interviews with Warren Buffett, Berkshire Hathaway Vice Chairman Charlie Munger and Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates at Berkshire Hathaway’s annual shareholder meetings in Omaha, Neb.

Prior to joining Fox Business, Claman served as an anchor at CNBC, most recently anchoring “Morning Call” and “Cover to Cover.”  During her time at CNBC, Claman has interviewed major financial newsmakers, including Buffett, Commerce Secretary Carlos Gutierrez, and former Treasury Secretary John Snow.  She has also anchored “Wake Up Call,” “Market Watch,” and “Today’s Business.”

Before CNBC, Claman served as an anchor and reporter for Boston’s WHDH-TV (NBC). She was also a contributing correspondent for NBC’s syndicated daytime program “RealLife.”  Prior to that, she anchored a two-hour daily talk show, “The Morning Exchange” for WEWS-TV (ABC) in Cleveland.  She received an Emmy for her work on “The Morning Exchange.”
