Posted on April 16, 2008
Stephanie Elam is a CNN business news correspondent. Her reports can be seen on Headline News and CNN International. Previously, Elam was the co-host of Black Enterprise Report, a program focused on business, career and financial education. Elam began her career in financial news as a copy editor for Dow Jones Newswires in New York City. Next, she joined Bridge News, an international news service. In 2000, she traveled to London and Mumbai, India, to help establish overnight coverage.
Soon after joining Bridge, Elam began her shift to broadcast news by covering corporate earnings for Nightly Business Report, PBS’s business news program.
