LESLEY STAHL
Name: Lesley Stahl
Born: 16 December 1941 Lynn, Massachusetts, United States
Lesley R. Stahl (born December 16, 1941, in Lynn, Massachusetts) is an American
television journalist. As of 2007, she has reported for CBS on 60 Minutes for
nearly 16 seasons.
A graduate of Wheaton College, her career received a running start from her
coverage of the Watergate affair. She went on to become White House
correspondent during the presidencies of Jimmy Carter, Ronald Reagan, and George
H.W. Bush. Stahl was the moderator of Face the Nation between September 1983 and
May 1991, and from 2002 - 2004, Stahl hosted 48 Hours Investigates. In 2002,
Stahl made headlines when Al Gore appeared on 60 Minutes and revealed for the
first time that he would not run for president again in 2004. In October 2007,
she experienced the unpleasant surprise to see Nicolas Sarkozy, President of
France, stand up and walk away from an interview with her, because she insisted
on asking him about his relationship with his soon-to-be estranged spouse.
She has written one book, Reporting Live, which was published in 1999.
In 1977, Stahl married author Aaron Latham. The couple currently lives in New
York.
Stahl lost over $100,000 in jewelry and electronics after her New York City
apartment was burglarized in January 2008.
