Willow Bay | Dean of USC's Journalism School & Former Anchor of Weekend GMA and CNN Moneyline

Willow Bay is the first female dean of USC's prestigious Annenberg School for Communication & Journalism. Her prominent broadcast experience includes co-hosting NBA Inside Stuff, serving as a correspondent for the Today Show, co-anchoring ABC's Good Morning America weekend edition and anchoring CNN's Moneyline News Hour. Before joining USC to direct the journalism program, she was a senior editor and senior strategic advisor to The Huffington Post and a special correspondent for Bloomberg TV. Willow is originally from New York City and holds an MBA from NYU. In her 20s, she was the face of Estee Lauder cosmetics and she says her modeling career not only helped her pay for school, but launched her into the TV reporting world by leading to on-air marketing spots.  One of her first gigs was also hosting a travel show alongside former NBC Today Show anchor, Matt Lauer.  Willow was named Dean of USC's Annenberg in July 2017. She launched the school's Media Center in Wallis Annenberg Hall, introduced the school's new Bachelor of Arts in Journalism degree program, and welcomed the first cohort of the school's nine-month Master of Science in Journalism program.  Her husband is Bob Iger, the CEO of The Walt Disney Company, and the couple has two children.
