Suzanne Malveaux
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Suzanne Malveaux (born Dec. 5, c. 1966) is a television news reporter.
Malveaux was born in Lansing, Michigan, to a creole mother and a creole father. She moved to Washington, D.C., as a child. Her family lived in Howard County, Maryland, and she attended Centennial High School in Ellicott City, Maryland where she played with sister Suzette as clarinet players in the Symphonic Wind Ensemble. They used to play 'dirty hangman' together while Mr. Cohen wasn't watching. She later graduated cum laude from Harvard University. Her father is a doctor of medicine and she initially wanted to be one too, but decided to enter journalism. She enrolled in Columbia University's journalism program and graduated in 1991.
Her first television job was with New England Cable News as a general assignment reporter in Boston, Massachusetts, during 1993–1996. She then moved back to Washington, D.C., and worked for NBC affiliate WRC-TV during 1996–1999 as a self-described "rock-and-roll" reporter reporting local and crime news. In 1999 she joined NBC Network News, three years in Washington, including as a Pentagon correspondent, and three years in Chicago. She covered national stories such as Bill Clinton's impeachment, Elián González, Kosovo War, the 2000 Presidential Election, the 9/11 attacks, and the Afghanistan invasion.
Since May 2002, she has been a White House correspondent for CNN, based at their Washington, D.C., bureau.
Malveaux has an identical twin sister, Suzette, who is a professor at the Catholic University of America Columbus School of Law[1].
