About Maria Bartiromo

Maria Sara Bartiromo is a distinguished American journalist and author recognized for her conservative viewpoints. She has made a name for herself as a financial reporter and news anchor. Currently, Bartiromo hosts "Mornings with Maria" and "Maria Bartiromo's Wall Street" on Fox Business, in addition to "Sunday Morning Futures With Maria Bartiromo" on the Fox News channel. Before her tenure at Fox, she spent five years at CNN as a producer, and in 1993, she joined CNBC, where she remained for two decades. During her time there, she anchored programs such as "Closing Bell" and "On the Money with Maria Bartiromo." Notably, she became the first television journalist to broadcast live reports from the New York Stock Exchange floor. Bartiromo's work earned her several accolades, including two Emmy Awards. Often referred to as the "Money Honey," she gained significant recognition within both the financial sector and the broader media landscape. While her reporting at CNBC tended to focus on finance rather than politics, she has also been actively involved in various non-profit and civic organizations. In 2013, Bartiromo transitioned to hosting programs at Fox after departing from CNBC. She comes from Italian heritage and, in 1999, she married Jonathan Steinberg, the CEO of WisdomTree Investments and the son of billionaire financier Saul Steinberg.
