"It requires time and energy to get invested in other
people's stories, but I do in my heart of hearts believe that you
emerge a better and smarter human as a result of taking that
time." — Lisa Ling
Lisa Ling (@lisaling) is the host and executive
producer of the CNN Original Series This Is Life with
Lisa Ling. It returns for its sixth
season on Sunday, September 29 at 10 p.m. ET. In each episode,
Lisa immerses herself in communities across America giving
viewers an inside look at some of the most unconventional
segments of society. In 2017, the series won a Gracie Award.
Lisa is also host of the CNN Digital series This Is Sex with Lisa
Ling, which explores the taboos around sex in America and This Is
Birth with Lisa Ling, which explores how healthcare legislation,
income inequality and cultural shifts shape how people have
children in America.
Before coming to CNN, Lisa was a field correspondent for The
Oprah Winfrey Show and contributor to ABC News' Nightline and
National Geographic's Explorer. She has reported from dozens of
countries, covering stories about gang rape in the Congo, bride
burning in India, and the Lord's Resistance Army in Uganda, among
other issues that are too often ignored.
Lisa got her start in journalism as a correspondent for Channel
One News where she covered the civil war in Afghanistan at 21
years of age. She later went on to become a co-host of ABC
Daytime's hit show The View, which won its first daytime Emmy
during her time at the show.
Lisa has also served as a special correspondent for CNN's Planet
in Peril series and is a contributing editor for USA Today's USA
Weekend magazine. In 2011, her acclaimed documentary journalism
series Our America with Lisa Ling began airing on OWN.
Lisa is the co-author of Mother, Daughter, Sister, Bride: Rituals
of Womanhood and Somewhere Inside: One Sister's Captivity in
North Korea and the Other's Fight to Bring Her Home, which she
penned with her sister Laura. In 2014, President Obama named Lisa
to the Commission on White House Fellows.
