Meet the Bowtie Ball’s honoree: Robin Roberts
Hi ,
On Nov. 16, acclaimed journalist Robin Roberts will be awarded the Poynter Medal for Lifetime Achievement in Journalism at Poynter’s 10th annual Bowtie Ball in Downtown Tampa. As an award-winning journalist and anchor of ABC’s “Good Morning America,” Robin Roberts has made a lasting impact on the world of journalism and television broadcasting.
The extraordinary career of Robin Roberts ✨
Robin Roberts began her career as a standout host on ESPN's “SportsCenter,” where her engaging style and sharp insights set her apart in sports journalism. In 2002, she became a news anchor for “Good Morning America” before being promoted to co-anchor in 2005. She quickly became a central figure to the show, noted for her journalistic integrity, compassion and resilience in the face of her personal battles with cancer and myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS).
