Denis Paiste of the New Hampshire Union Leader writes Wednesday about CNBC reporter Trish Regan, who is a native of the state.

Paiste writes, “‘My whole career has been as an economics and business correspondent,’ Regan, who also is a graduate of Phillips Exeter Academy, said in a recent telephone.

“She also reports for CNBC’s investigative magazine program ‘Business Nation’ and contributes to ‘NBC Nightly News with Brian Williams.’
