Jeanne Meserve Biography

Jeanne Meserve has defined homeland security reporting. She covered the beat for CNN from the September 11th attacks through their tenth anniversary, as long as any reporter in the country. Her portfolio has included intelligence, law enforcement, cyber, aviation, border and port security. She has flown with a combat air patrol, reported from atop a crane in the port of Los Angeles and watched undercover red teams test airport security checkpoints.

Meserve is currently a senior fellow at the George Washington University Homeland Security Policy Institute, and a member of the Aspen Institute Homeland Security Advisory Group. She is also president of Shore Road Multimedia LLC, which specializes in homeland security communications issues.

On the ground in New Orleans during Hurricane Katrina, Meserve was the first to report on the devastating flooding inundating portions of the city. CNNs coverage of the storm and its aftermath won a Peabody Award. Judges for the 2005 David Bloom Award said her coverage revealed extraordinary composure and compassion as well as her unwavering respect for the facts.

Her experience in Katrina has given Meserve firsthand knowledge of crisis communications, as has her coverage of other natural disasters and major crime stories, including the Washington snipers, the Elizabeth Smart kidnapping and the Virginia Tech shootings.

Meserve has covered technology and its application to homeland security problems, including border security, nuclear detection, bioterrorism and cyber. She has also used the latest field technologies to bring her stories to air.

Her understanding of the international terror picture is augmented by her years as a State Department correspondent for ABC News, where she reported from China, the Middle East and Europe. She anchored CNNs award winning coverage of Yitzhak Rabins assassination and the death of Princess Diana, and won an Edward R. Murrow Award for her reporting from Cuba on the international tug of war over Elian Gonzales.

An accomplished television anchor, Meserve has moderated interviews and policy debates for the Aspen Institute, the Council on Foreign Relations, the Bipartisan Policy Center, the Intelligence and National Security Alliance and the Halifax International Security Forum. She often speaks to academic and policy groups.

Meserve received a B.A. in English Literature from Middlebury College, and is a recipient of the colleges Alumni Achievement Award.

Jeanne Meserve Speaking Topics

  • Can You Hear Me Now?

    More than a decade after the September 11th attacks and more than five years after Hurricane Katrina, surveys show that only a small percentage of Americans have taken even rudimentary steps to prepare themselves and their families for emergencies. Jeanne Meserve examines why and asks how government and community leaders can more effectively communicate with the public before, during and after an emergency.

  • Risk and Frisk

    Millions of dollars have been spent in the name of homeland security since the September 11th attacks. Jeanne Meserve uses vivid examples from her decade covering the issue to examine whether money has been spent wisely, where vulnerabilities remain and what America has lost and gained in the process. She also looks forward to suggest how we might do more in a time of less.

  • Moderator and Interviewer

    As the anchor of CNNs coverage of Yitzhak Rabins assassination, Princess Dianas death and other breaking news events, Jeanne Meserve has gathered awards and accolades for her insightful interviews of world leaders and everyday citizens. She understands how to illuminate a subject through one-on-one interactions and group discussions. As a moderator, Meserve uses humor, pacing, meticulous preparation and a gift for asking the sharp question to create vibrant panel discussions that engage the audience.
