Danielle Robay is a TV host and journalist, currently a correspondent for IMDb and NBC4-LA, and host for AT&T/Direct TV. You’ve seen her bring her trademark blend of energy, wit, and candid cultural commentary to HLN’s Dr. Drew (as the recurring millennial voice) and national television programs like E!, EXTRA, Entertainment Tonight Online, The Steve Harvey Show, Good Morning Britain (ITV), Morning Buzz (VH1), and NBC’s 1st Look — and to her loyal social media following of over 250,000 followers across major digital platforms.
In 2016, Danielle was named co-host of WCIU’s Chicago-based, 2 hour-live morning news program The Jam, making her the youngest morning TV host in Chicago’s history. She’s created, written, and produced TV and online content; and hosted live TV shows, round tables, red carpet events, and interviewed the biggest names in Hollywood—she’s chatted with everyone from Taylor Swift + Michael B. Jordan, to Helen Mirren and Tom Hanks. Even Larry King has commented on her compelling interview style: “ Danielle has the ability to make people feel seen.”
Just like Barbara Walters did for earlier generations of women, Robay seeks to transform her generation’s relationship with popular media, creating a platform for young women to shape the world through open dialogue. She is launching her own video podcast for trailblazing women, titled Pretty Smart. You can learn more about Danielle on her website and give her a follow on Instagram and Twitter.
