Joan Lunden
"Joan Lunden truly exemplifies today's modern working woman. An award-winning journalist, bestselling author, motivational speaker, successful entrepreneur, one of America's most recognized and trusted television personalities, this mom of seven continues to do it all. As host of Good Morning America for nearly two decades, Lunden brought insight to top issues for millions of Americans each day. The longest running host ever on early morning television, Lunden reported from 26 countries, covered 4 presidents and 5 Olympics and kept Americans up to date on how to care for their homes, their families and themselves. A part of the sandwich generation, Lunden's demographic spans from working mother of 7 including two young sets of twins, ages 7 and 9; to caregiver to her 93 year old mother, so she truly understands the stresses women face today. Lunden brings that experience to all her projects, whether focusing on parenting, entrepreneurship, health and wellness, or family caregiving. From real-life experience sprung Lunden's passion for elder and family caregiving. She currently hosts RLTV's Taking Care, a series dedicated to caregivers across America; she is the spokesperson for the nation's leading senior referral service, A Place for Mom; and she recently co-authored a new edition of Chicken Soup for the Soul: Family Caregiving."
