11 Facts About The Fox News Host
In addition to her career spanning CNBC and Fox News, Maria Bartiromo has enjoyed a successful vocation as an author. She has written and co-written numerous books throughout her career, including her well-received "The 10 Laws and The Weekend That Changed Wall Street" and "The 10 Laws of Enduring Success." When the latter was being released, Bartiromo sat down for an interview with Success, where she was asked if she'd found professional and personal fulfillment. "Success is knowing yourself — an inner comfort and inner contentment," she explained. "I do [have it]," she added.
It's not hard to understand why. As Success detailed, in just one week, Bartiromo had interviewed then-Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner, former British Prime Minister Tony Blair, film professional Oliver Stone, as well as prepped for sit-downs with former First Lady Laura Bush, former President Bill Clinton and the Crown Prince of Bahrain. She also hosted a special and interviewed Captain Chesley "Sully" Sullenberger — known for his incredible actions while safely landing a passenger plane on the Hudson — and took part in the Clinton Global Citizen Awards Ceremony. Whew. All of this happened on top of her media schedule and her life outside of work (if there is one). As the journalist once told New York Magazine, work is pretty much her life. "I love what I do," she admitted. "But I have not been able to figure out the balance in life."
To say that Bartiromo has found success in a grave understatement.
