Chris Wallace
Chris Wallace breaks down today’s top news issues and their impact on individuals and industry. Wallace’s thorough presentation of the facts leaves audiences with takeaways that prepare them for impending changes in the political landscape.
Wallace is an anchor for CNN and host of Who’s Talking to Chris Wallace? on HBO Max. Featured interviews from the show also air on CNN in Sunday primetime. Praised as an “equal opportunity inquisitor” by The Boston Globe and “an aggressive journalist,” “sharp edged” and “solid” by The Washington Post, Wallace interviews CEOs and media moguls, Hollywood legends and newsmakers across politics, business, world affairs, sports and culture.
In January 2022, Wallace joined CNN after more than 50 award-winning years in broadcasting, including 18 years with FOX News where he was the anchor of FOX News Sunday. Throughout his almost two decades at FOX, Wallace participated in coverage of every major political event, secured numerous high-profile interviews with dignitaries as well as U.S and foreign leaders, covered five presidential elections, and interviewed every president since George H.W. Bush.
Wallace has won every major broadcast news award for his reporting, including three Emmy Awards, the DuPont-Columbia Silver Baton, the Peabody Award and the Sol Taishoff Award for Broadcast Journalism, which was awarded to him by the National Press Foundation.
Wallace is also the New York Times bestselling author of several books, including his latest, Countdown 1960: The Behind-the-Scenes Story of the 312 Days that Changed America's Politics Forever, which draws timely parallels to the 2024 U.S. elections.
Before joining FOX, Wallace worked at ABC News for 14 years where he served as the chief correspondent for PrimeTime and a substitute host for Nightline. Prior to ABC, Wallace was NBC's chief White House correspondent and moderated Meet the Press, making him the only person to have hosted two Sunday talk shows. He also anchored the Sunday edition of NBC Nightly News. A graduate of Harvard University, Wallace began his career as a city hall reporter for The Boston Globe.
With substance, fairness and gravitas, Chris captivates with seasoned insights on current events and political affairs, including the evolving role of the media and influence of technology on the presidency, America's outlook under President Biden, and what audiences can continue to expect during his administration.
