CBS newswoman Nancy Cordes

Nancy Cordes is a leading figure in the new generation of female television correspondents.


She covers the United States Congress for CBS News, which she joined in 2007, and as a journalist trying to keep politicians on the straight and narrow, she may be even more powerful than that other woman on Capitol Hill named Nancy. ;-) 

Ms. Cordes actually started out at ABC, where she reported on the Iraq War and Hurricane Katrina, among other stories.  She got there through working at the Washington, D.C. ABC affiliate WJLA-TV from 1999 to 2003.  While at WJLA-TV, she covered the September 11 attack on the Pentagon.

Fun fact: Nancy Cordes grew up in Hawaii. After graduating from the University of Pennsylvania, she worked KHNL-TV in Honolulu from 1995 to 1997.
