About Katie Couric

As the TV news anchor who famously asked her producer to explain “the internet" in 1994, Katie Couric’s career spans decades, with shows on all three big networks. She’s now the Global Anchor for @YahooNews: “she felt she had done ‘pretty much everything’ that she could in TV news." In 2015, Katie attended her first VidCon, the annual online video conference, notably interviewing BuzzFeed Motion Picture President Ze Frank, discussing digital flexibility, emotional responses to media, and data’s place in revealing trends. Known to be tough with a sense of humor, her 1.4 million followers look to her for frank discussion.
