Jenna Wolfe  

News Anchor for TODAY's weekend editions

Jenna Wolfe is the news anchor for Weekend TODAY. In addition, she is a correspondent for NBC News' TODAY, where she reports feature stories for America's top-rated morning news program.

Wolfe joined NBC News in August 2007 as a TODAY correspondent. She served as co-anchor of the Sunday edition of Weekend TODAY from 2007-2012. Wolfe came to NBC from WABC, New York where she spent three years as a sports reporter and anchor. While at WABC, Wolfe went on location daily covering sporting events throughout the tri-state area and she served as a weekend anchor for Eyewitness News This Morning. From 2002- 2004, Wolfe was a reporter and anchor for MSG Network where she hosted the network's flagship "MSG SportsDesk." Prior to that, she served as the first female sportscaster on a local broadcast television news program in Philadelphia at WPHL, the WB affiliate.

Wolfe began her on-air career in 1996 as a news and sports reporter for WICZ, the FOX affiliate in Binghamton, NY. Two years later, she joined WUHF in Rochester where she was the weekend sports anchor before joining WPHL in 1999. When Wolfe joined TODAY, it was for the second time in her career; she served as a summer intern at the program during college.

Her background, like her personality, is spirited. Born in Kingston, Jamaica and raised in Port-au-Prince, Haiti, she moved to the United States in 1989, so her American pop culture references only date back to Duran Duran, When Harry Met Sally and Nintendo Game Boy, all big that year. She is also an avid moviegoer and a Seinfeld devotee. She is fluent in French and Creole and can ask you where the library is in Spanish, which, by the way, has never come in handy. A self-proclaimed daredevil and thrill-seeker, Wolfe is also a certified personal trainer. But of all the adventures she's embarked on, motherhood is by far her favorite. She gave birth to Harper Estelle last year and she and her partner, Stephanie Gosk, have been beaming ever since.

Wolfe resides in Manhattan with her family.
