Soledad O’Brien: This Emmy Award-winning broadcast journalist is unstoppable! The daughter of immigrants (her mom’s from Cuba, her dad’s from Australia), O’Brien woke up a nation of immigrants as correspondent of CNN’s 2009 special Latino in America, which explored how Latinos are reshaping communities and culture, and forcing us to rediscover what it means to be American. O’Brien has also hosted CNN’s Black in America series, American Morning, and Starting Point. She’s recently gone independent as a roving documentary reporter and is starting her own production company called Starfish Media Group. We can’t wait to see what she does next!
