David Brancaccio Biography

David Brancaccio is a prominent figure in public broadcasting, with a career spanning more than three decades in radio and television journalism. Brancaccio serves as host and senior editor of "Marketplace Morning Report," where he reports on the economy, financial and labor markets, technology, the environment, and social enterprises. The program airs five times each morning and is known for its focus on economic trends and business news.

Brancaccio began contributing to the public radio program "Marketplace" in 1989, initially serving as the program's Europe editor based in London before becoming senior editor and host. During his tenure, "Marketplace" received the DuPont-Columbia Award and the George Foster Peabody Award. Brancaccio later joined Bill Moyers on "Now," serving as co-host before becoming the program's solo anchor. As host and senior editor of NOW on PBS, Brancaccio covered topics including business and finance, the environment, national security, and human rights. A survey of opinion leaders identified NOW on PBS as a highly influential news program on broadcast television.

Brancaccio returned to "Marketplace" and continued to explore the intersection of technology and the workforce, notably through the "Robots Ate My Job" series, which examined the impact of automation on employment. He also hosted "California Connected" on public television and produced a series of long-form public radio documentaries on international affairs with the Stanley Foundation. Brancaccio appeared in the documentary "Fixing the Future" and authored the book "Squandering Aimlessly." His written work has been published in The Wall Street Journal, The Baltimore Sun, and The Guardian.

Brancaccio's reporting emphasizes economic and democratic issues, often highlighting the experiences of individuals affected by major trends. His investigative journalism and in-depth interviews have earned him honors including the Peabody, Columbia-duPont, Emmy, and Walter Cronkite awards. He received the Gerald Loeb Award for Audio for "Robot-Proof Jobs" produced for "Marketplace." Brancaccio has appeared on CNBC, CNN, and MSNBC. He holds a master's degree in journalism from Stanford University, where he has also taught a graduate-level course in broadcast news writing.
