Joan Lunden is one of America's most recognized and trusted television personalities. As host of ABC-TV's Good Morning America for almost two decades, the longest-running host on early morning television, Lunden helped millions of viewers greet each new day. During her tenure she reported from 26 countries, covered four presidents, five Olympics, and two Royal weddings, and all the while kept Americans up to date on how to care for their homes, their families and themselves. Today, calling upon all those many years of interviewing the world's greatest leaders and stars from all walks of life including chefs and lifestyle experts, she is host of the CBS primetime series Wickedly Perfect, a competition searching for America's next great style maker.

An award-winning broadcast journalist, Lunden executive produced and hosted the weekly series Behind Closed Doors from 1996-2001 first for ABC TV, then for A&E TV. On the critically-acclaimed program she gave viewers unprecedented access to places few have ever seen like the CIA Headquarters and the Secret Service Training Grounds, and she delighted viewers with her on-air daredevil adventures like bungee jumping, mountain climbing, performing as a Las Vegas Showgirl and diving to the bottom of the sea with Oceanographers. In May 2001, Lunden was awarded for her in-depth coverage of our Armed Forces with the Decoration for Distinguished Civilian Service, the highest honor given to a civilian by the military.

Lunden is one of the most visible and written about moms in America. She has graced the covers of over 26 magazines, most recently Ladies Home Journal, Women's Day, People and Good Housekeeping. In sharing her personal experiences, Lunden has become a vocal parenting advocate and endeared herself to American viewers. She was voted "Mother of the Year" by the National Mother's Day Committee and "Career Mother of the Year" by the National Institute of Infant Services. Lunden has dedicated much of her career to educating parents, hosting the award-winning Mothers Day program for Lifetime TV, Miracle Babies for PAX-TV and the video Your Newborn Baby.

In addition to being one of the most successful women in the media, Ms. Lunden is also a nationally known author and speaker, addressing groups as large as 25,000, on a wide variety of subjects.
