Today, I have the privilege of introducing to you someone who’s been in the broadcast journalism game for more than 30 years.  She was an LA-based correspondent for international network CGTN-America where she covered news, politics, business and entertainment throughout Southern California and beyond.  She also has many years of international experience where she worked for Japan’s NHK network and CNN as the Tokyo Correspondent and then the main anchor for CNN International in Hong Kong.  In 2000, May came back to the US and joined Oxygen Media, founded by Oprah Winfrey, as one of its main talk show hosts. In 2004, she headed back to Asia to join CNBC Asia in Singapore as the primary anchor.

At the start of 2020, when anti-Asian hate exploded during the COVID-19 pandemic, May's production company, Lotus Media House, partnered with NextShark, the leading Asian online news source, to launch "The May Lee Show," the first pan-Asia talk show for women.  She does this all while being an adjunct professor at USC.

Let's meet May Lee as she shares her story about her upbringing and journalism career.
