    Christiane Amanpour is CNN’s chief international correspondent and is best known for her reporting from war zones and hot spots around the world, ranging from Iraq and Afghanistan to the Balkans to the hurricane-ravaged Gulf Coast. Her work is the cornerstone for CNN’s coverage of major international events and includes exclusive interviews Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, Yasser Arafat, Tony Blair and Pervez Musharraf among other world leaders. She has presented a series of highly acclaimed long-form programs including “God’s Warriors” in 2007. Amanpour has earned two George Foster Peabody Awards and nine Emmy Awards. A native of London who lived in Iran as a child, she graduated summa cum laude from the University of Rhode Island with a bachelor of arts in journalism. James Rubin is married to Amanpour, and he served as assistant secretary of state and chief spokesman for the State Department under Madeleine Albright in the Clinton Administration. Since leaving the State Department, he has been a visiting professor at the London School of Economics and Columbia University, and is a regular commentator for the Financial Times, the BBC and CNN. He is a graduate of Columbia. Amanpour and Rubin replaced Tim Russert, who died suddenly on June 13.
