She began her career in private broadcasting in 1978 in Nova Scotia after graduating from the University of Windsor with a degree in communication studies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>She later moved to television as a local reporter for CBC Edmonton and eventually to CBC&#8217;s The National. In 1991, Ms. Tremonti moved to Berlin as a foreign correspondent for The National, and was honoured with two Geminis for her coverage of the war in Bosnia and the death of Princess Diana.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>She also spent three years in Jerusalem covering the Arab-Israeli conflict. In 2000, she joined CBC Television&#8217;s investigative documentary program, The Fifth Estate, and won a Gracie Allen Award from American Women in Radio and Television. She has also received an Outstanding Achievement Award from Women in Film and Television Toronto and a Radio and Television News Directors Award.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Seasoned CBC journalist Anna Marie Tremonti was awarded the degree of Doctor of Laws, honoris causa, \u201cin recognition of a distinguished journalism career that has provided reportage from events across Canada and around the world.\u201d Host of CBC Radio&#8217;s current affairs program, The Current, since 2002, Ms. Tremonti has never been afraid of controversy over [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"parent":340,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_cu_dining_location_slug":"","footnotes":"","_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"cu_page_type":[],"class_list":["post-12541","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"acf":{"cu_post_thumbnail":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/senate\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/12541","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/senate\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/senate\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/senate\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/senate\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=12541"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/senate\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/12541\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":13500,"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/senate\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/12541\/revisions\/13500"}],"up":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/senate\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/340"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/senate\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=12541"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"cu_page_type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/senate\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/cu_page_type?post=12541"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
