three decades of experience in the media industry. As co-anchor for
America’s most-watched morning newscast, “Good Morning America,”
alongside Robin Roberts and Michael Strahan, and host of ABC’s

broadcast journalism. His headline-making interviews include President
Joe Biden in his first conversation following his 2024 presidential
debate performance, Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro following the
firebombing of his official residence, New York City Mayor-elect
Zohran Mamdani the day after his election, Sam Bankman-Fried in the

career, he has interviewed six U.S. presidents, including Donald
Trump, Joe Biden, Barack Obama, George W. Bush, Bill Clinton and Jimmy
Carter, as well as most presidential candidates and global leaders,

Stephanopoulos’ interviews span politics, culture and entertainment,
featuring sit-downs with Timothée Chalamet, Meryl Streep, Bruce
Springsteen, George Clooney, Taylor Swift, Adam Sandler, Ryan Coogler,
Brooke Shields, Emma Stone, Molly Ringwald and Sofía Vergara. Known
for exclusive, newsmaking conversations, Stephanopoulos’ 2021
interview with Alec Baldwin, weeks after the “Rust” shooting, won
a Los Angeles Press Club Award. He also sat down with former MI6 spy
Christopher Steele, the author of the so-called “Steele dossier.”

For the 2024-2025 season, “This Week with George Stephanopoulos”

He is also the co-founder of BedBy8, a production company led by
