Career Highlights
Dana’s first novel was published in 2005, and while seeing four of her books in print was exciting, her most satisfying professional experiences have come courtesy of the people she’s met.
Interviewing survivors of Germany’s Stalag III for a six-part series, covering the escape of an American ally from Saigon as the city fell to communists in 1975, and being trusted by everyday people to tell their stories has been an honor. More recently, getting to know and interview the CEO and president of OneUnited Bank — the largest black-owned bank in the U.S. — reminded her of how much she loves her job.
