Catherine Herridge

Catherine Herridge (born May 18 1964, USA) is an American Homeland Security correspondent for the Fox News Channel, in addition to host of the Saturday edition of "Weekend Live".

Joining the network in its inception in 1996, she originally was a London-based correspondent. In addition, she has also served as a field correspondent for the past Fox newsmagazine, "The Pulse".

She has covered a number of different stories including Hillary Clinton’s campaign for Senate in 2000, the 2004 Democratic presidential elections, the Washington, D.C., sniper story, coverage on US sponsored resolution calling for the lifting of sanctions against Iraq, and the trial of Zacarias Moussaoui, the only person charged in the U.S. over the 9/11 attacks. Herridge was in New York on September 11, 2001, and reported for the network from locations in New York City.

Before joining FOX News, Herridge worked as a London-based correspondent for ABC News.

Herridge has been a recipient of a number of awards for her work in journalism, including a Bronze World Medal from the New York Festivals for excellence in communications media.

She earned a Bachelor’s degree from Harvard College and a Master’s degree in journalism from the Columbia University Graduate School of Journalism.

On June 6, 2006, she donated a portion of her liver to her infant son who was diagnosed with biliary atresia. The Washington Post described her in an August 2006 Style section cover story as the "pixielike woman from Fox News Channel with the kind of short, tousled hair that's convenient for reporting from places where using a blow dryer can't be a priority. She covered the ethnic wars in the former Yugoslavia; she was in New York when the towers fell. Her specialties of late have been homeland security and terrorism."
